When we go into the quiet of nature, which is not silent, a deep ability to hear returns. Our listening horizon broadens exquisitely. We hear nearer and farther. Myriad layers of sound flow together, then become distinct - squirrels foraging in leaf litter, wind in gentle concert with leaves and grasses, rain pattering in a swell of tones. Insects hum and chirp from plant to plant. Birds communicate tree to tree in shrill warning and melodic chatter. Frogs call from one pond to the next. A pack of coyotes yip and whine across the miles. We tune in and we hear.
    As an artist, I'm often asked, "Do you prefer music or quiet to inspire you while you're working?" Thinking about Hempton's definition of quiet, I imagine they are not exclusive. But I'll let you guess which I prefer.

This painting ships in a tube. It is 48"x 66.5" unstretched leaving plenty of room to stretch to the 42"x 61" image as shown.

Featured in Saatchi Art collections and catalog, Michelle Louis has exhibited worldwide. Her paintings are held in private, corporate, and public collections. She's licensed work to designers and consultants for projects large and small. "Artist and naturalist, I'm curious about how the land inspires awe, how we feel it deep in our bones, how to express that connection, and what we can learn from it. My process-focused work explores pattern, connection, and balance in the natural world. My investment-quality abstracts bring energy from the natural world to interior spaces." Artist and naturalist trained in studio art, graphic design, and landscape architecture, Michelle Louis' studio extends to her yard, where she nurtures an edible landscape. BA, University of Wisconsin, USA.
