Over the past few years, Michele has been making art to discover her own aesthetic, aside from her career of over twenty-five years as a surface designer. Her paintings are a dive into vibrant colour, evoking imagined, wished-for landscapes. Emotion-led, intuitive, expressive mark-making, using symbolism that has personal meaning for the artist, the hope is that viewers find their own emotional responses to her art. Each artwork is an attempt to find joy and meaning in the small things and escape from the everyday; a positive trigger for the mind, both for herself as the artist and for the viewer. Playful, colourful abstract paintings, these are experiments in colour, technique, pattern, light, texture and mark-making.
If you're interested in any of the art seen here or would like to commission a painting, it would be great to hear from you so please get in touch via the contact page.
