About the Item
This contemporary, abstracted still life, oil on canvas is by artist Mel Davis.
The distinctive contemporary paintings of Mel Davis have been admired by collectors throughout North America. The Montreal-born artist creates colourful, abstract compositions that often pay homage to French masters such as Matisse. This rendering of a bowl of fruit outlined in deep blue, the contents in bright orange, blue, green, yellow and pink stands out against the white and yellow backdrop.
“I am interested in how we as makers and viewers can find endless modes of description and emotional connection in these classical representations.” Mel Davis
Mel Davis was born in Montreal and graduated from Concordia University with a BFA in 1998. A short study trip at the Slade School of Art in London was followed by a move to California where she acquired her MFA at the San Francisco Institute of Art. Her work has won numerous awards including the Conseil des Arts et Lettres du Québec, The Canada Council for the Arts and the Pollock Krasner Foundation Award. Davis’s work has been shown in both solo and group shows in Canada and the U.S.

Mel Davis
To great effect, Mel Davis uses colour, shape and patterns to convey emotion in this abstract composition. The palette is dramatic—rich tones of blues, green, orange and burgundy. “My paintings investigate iconic themes in art such as landscape, the portrait, the interior. I am interested in how we as makers and viewers can find endless modes of description and emotional connection in these classical representations.” Mel Davis She was born in Montreal and graduated from Concordia University with a BFA in 1998. A short study trip at the Slade School of Art in London was followed by a move to California where she acquired her MFA at the San Francisco Institute of Art. Davis still lives in the Bay area. Her work has been shown in both solo and group shows in Canada and the U.S.
