Jarman, Melanie

Melanie Jarman is a Busselton-based mixed media artist whose richly layered work reflects a deep connection to nature. Born in England and raised in Hong Kong, she spent years travelling through a career in hotel management before settling in Western Australia with her family in 2005. A proud mother of three children, Melanie draws inspiration from the rugged coastlines and native flora of the Southwest, exploring texture and form through watercolour, textiles, felting and sculptural embroidery.
