Poppy's prints are signed, sealed and delivered

POPPY Melia absorbed much of her aesthetic while travelling around the Polynesian Islands with her mother, Pauline Bewick, and sister Holly Melia, both also artists. Since then, she has travelled extensively around Europe, Turkey, Nepal, America, New Zealand, and China, all of which she brings to her detailed, stylised paintings, some of which take up to a year to finish, and many of which are sold long before that comes to pass. Right now, a limited number of Poppy Melia prints, hand-signed, are available with free delivery worldwide.

The prints, many of which combine an understanding of mythology and heritage with an appreciation of nature, animals, birds and flowers, are all dated on the back, embossed by the Copper House, Ireland's longest established fine art printing studio - and signed and numbered individually by Poppy.
