About the Item
Campbell Archibald Mellon ROI, RBA (1876 - 1955)
Campbell Archibald Mellon was born in Berkshire on June 16th 1876; he moved to Nottingham in 1903 to work as a travelling salesman and studied under Carl Brenner, a nephew of B. W. Leader.
In 1928 Campbell Mellon moved to Norfolk following in the footsteps of the artist Sir John Arnesby Brown RA, whom he greatly admired. He lived in a house on the cliff top overlooking Gorleston-on-Sea and for three years became a student of Arnesby Brown, forming a lifelong friendship.
Living with a view of the beach and harbour Campbell Mellon brilliantly captured the holiday makers on the beach and although he had used dark “muddy” colours for his early landscapes his later beach scenes were painted directly into the sun giving warmth and light.
Campbell Mellon was a founder member and the first Chairman of the “Great Yarmouth and District Society of Artists” formed in 1927, he exhibited at the RA, RBA, ROI, RW and at the Walker Art Gallery Liverpool, being elected ROI and RBA in 1938.
Campbell Mellon Died on the 28th August 1955.
Although Mellon’s worked out of doors, his paintings were believed to be largely composed in the studio, as he re-arrange, eliminated detail he didn’t see fitting and added design to suit his ideas. He was more interested in composing an image that conjured up the atmospheric qualities of happiness rather than a sober pictorial translation of what he had seen. Mellon’s style had developed along simpler lines.
After serving in the First World War Mellon moved to the town of Gorleston in Norfolk and he became well known for these seaside scenes with a mass of clearly defined people. He loved to paint the beach at Gorleston whilst looking into the sun and the play of light on the sand fascinated him.
