When I first saw australian artist Melissa Haslam's work while browsing through some online galleries, I immediately fell in love. As you might be able to tell, I'm a fan of romantic portraits of waif-like girls and Melissa blends her subjects lovingly with the nature that surrounds them. I love the softness of her lines and her usage of dark and light in each of her paintings. I would love to one day own one of her prints. You can see more of her work at her blog, Cherry Fields.
