William Mellor began his working life as a loom tuner in the textile industry, becoming a professional artist at the age of 30. He painted in both oils and watercolours, travelling extensively around north Wales and the Lake District in particular to produce a timeless record of classical British landscapes. He was a member of the Royal Hibernian Academy and today his works are in the collections of the Walker Gallery in Liverpool and the Manchester City Gallery.
