Asian brush painting is the simple elegance of the natural subjects, plus the real and apparent spontaneity of the process. Less is more. A few strokes can capture the beauty of a blossom or the fragility of a falling leaf. Mellin creates each image at one sitting, with no preliminary drawing and very little over painting or modification. The idea is to capture the natural essence of the image rather than a detailed botanical copy. For more, Galleries.
