About Mel

Mel Winning

M A with Distinction

AboutI explain my work as being Magpie Collective. I have a dark side in my work that seems to come out of nowhere and I find  that funny. I work from an idea as a starting place ,sometimes with an object sometimes with my make-up character and photographic skills, I don't really know where I'm going with that, just expanding my idea. People ask me how do you know when to stop? there are endless options in the reclaim and digital world. I just trust my judgement, when I look at a piece and think I love that, I know it's finished.
