I am Melissa Payne, a profoundly Deaf Artist. I grew up next to Three Cliffs Bay in beautiful Gower, an area of outstanding natural beauty. I am an Artist Maker, taking on commissioned work and creating many artworks including fine art, enamel, ceramics, stained glass and surface pattern design. My artworks are sold in galleries and fairs. My work is often organic in nature and through the pieces, I strive to communicate with the world through my Deaf identity that ouvres my sensorial journey by incorporating drawings feature.
