Introducing our May Artist of the Month: Renee Melia

Mother's Day is a special time to honour the incredible women in our lives who have sacrificed so much for us. For Renee Melia, a digital illustrator and painter based in Perth, Australia, Mother's Day is also an opportunity to celebrate the strength and beauty of women through her art.

Renee's work has a strong focus on female portraits and forms. She enjoys experimenting with unusual shapes and palettes to create pieces that are intriguing and fun. Her art captures the essence of femininity in a unique and captivating way.

In addition to her paintings and murals, Renee has also created gift card designs for Card.Gift that celebrate the special bond between mother and child. "The Berry Best Mum," eftpos design captures the special exchange between child and mother. Parents love to see small glimpses of themselves mirrored in their children, while children like to mimic the grown-ups in their world. Renee's Berry Best Mum design is a reflection of this special bond and is a perfect gift for Mother's Day.

The "Three Generations," Card.Gift design embodies her signature style and honours mothers in each stage of life and the link between generations. Mother's Day often brings the whole family together, and it's always very special to see generations of family unite to celebrate all that is motherhood. Renee's gift card design is a perfect way to honour mothers in each stage of life.

Renee's dedication to celebrating women through her art is truly inspiring. Her work is a testament to the power of art in bringing attention to important issues and celebrating diversity and strength. Her gift card designs for Card.Gift are a perfect way to celebrate the special mothers in your life this Mother's Day.

As we celebrate Mother's Day, Renee's art and gift card designs serve as a reminder that we should continue to uplift and empower mothers in every aspect of life. Mother's have made significant contributions to society, and their stories deserve to be told and celebrated.

If you're looking for unique and captivating gift cards that celebrate the strength and beauty of mothers, Renee Melia's work is definitely worth checking out. Her gift cards are a perfect gift for any mother who values creativity, empowerment, and self-expression.
