  • About me...

    I’m Orla Mellon & I am passionate about painting animals & nature, honing my fascination with the subject into my art, which juxtaposes pattern and vibrant colour beside beautiful creatures, so connected to me and to the earth itself.

     

    As a child, my father took me fishing & hunting for rabbits. This imbued a deep appreciation of where my food comes from, and a connection to the animals & to nature we so often take for granted.

     

    It wouldn’t take long before these visceral experiences found their way into my art.

     

    I currently work from home in my studio in Dublin.

     

    If you have any queries, please feel free to contact me. I hope you enjoy looking at my work.

    “Lucky for me, my husband likes a pint and was having a drink in Grogans in Dublin city centre when he spotted a painting of a stag on the wall.

    I rang Grogans and they kindly put me in touch with Orla. Orla was a pleasure to deal with and we decided to get the stag on a bigger canvas and also get a fox. We live beside the Phoenix Park in the strawberry beds so both pieces seemed very fitting.

    We love the vibrant colors and hang Orla’s artwork proudly in our home.

    Supporting-mammy run businesses, buy local, supporting women.”

    “Orla painted a pet portrait of our boxer Zoe a few years ago, and I can honestly say it's one of my favourite things we have in our home. The painting is so beautiful. The colours are so vibrant and there is so much texture, and the likeness to Zoe is spot on. As much as I love all these aspects about the painting, my favourite thing about it, is how Orla managed to capture Zoe's personality. I don't know how she did it....but she did!!!! Thank you so much Orla, we love it!”
