Surfaces are repeatedly added to, drawn into and scraped back, allowing each work to evolve as a conversation between the artist and the canvas. Her vibrant paintings celebrate the beauty, energy and atmosphere of the Australian landscape.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"rachel-melchers-remembered-hills","title":"Rachel Melchers - Remembered Hills","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal Artwork\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e64 x 94cm\u003c\/span\u003e | Oil on canvas | Framed in oak | Ready to hang\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Artwork: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis painting is drawn from my memories of driving through the countryside around my home in Mudgee, NSW.
