Michelle graduated from Central St Martins College of Art and Design with a degree in Textiles Design. Her speciality was print making. Hand painting her screens gave her work a loose painterly and expressive immediacy. After collage Michelle never left London. Working on feature films in costume departments for over ten years Michelle has now returned to her first love, painting and has set up her Art studio near her home with views of the Big City. Her work usually starts with a series of her own photographs which capture a Beauty and simplicity in the human world. She then distils the compositions down to a raw, abstract, engaging interpretation through mixed media, collage and paint. The simplicity of her aesthetic belies a rigorous and frenetic work ethic which prevents her from 'overthinking' and stifling her mark making.
