“I want to create in my paintings a similar experience to an unfamiliar landscape being looked at for the first time, an uncertainty of what lies ahead, the puzzle that we undertake in trying to identify what belongs to the sky, what is water, what is the land and at what point they all meet. … My landscapes are influenced by places that I know and love, the North Norfolk coast…I am drawn to the endless beaches of Norfolk, the massive skies reflected in the huge canvases of its beaches.” Melanie Max, The Old Fire Engine House Gallery, Ely May- July 2018
