ABOUT THE ARTWORK

This life-sized painting began as an exercise in blind contour figure painting. I put my hand and brush to the surface, closed my eyes, and began to paint. "Seeing" only in my mind, I blindly worked across the canvas. After sensing that the basic forms were done, I opened my eyes. I loved the lines and flow, and decided to finish it with a monochromatic sienna palette. Full size of the painting is 70 x 70 inches, leaving ample canvas to stretch to its 65" x 65" x 1.5 image as shown. It is signed and back and ships in a tube. This is especially safe for oversized works. Rolled canvas can be easily stretched (placed onto wooden stretcher bars) by a local framer upon arrival.

Featured in Saatchi Art collections and catalog, Michelle Louis is a full-time painter based near Madison, Wisconsin. Her work has been in numerous exhibitions, and included in corporate, public, and private collections throughout the United States and abroad, including the National Gallery of Costa Rica. She's licensed work to designers and consultants for projects large and small. "Artist and naturalist, I'm curious about how nature 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 balance, pattern, and connection in a complex world. Celebrating Nature through form and movement, I want to show you how Nature and time constantly expand and contract all around us, eliciting our sense of wonder. I hope my work serves as a reminder to be receptive to beauty and mystery. Whether artist or viewer, individual life experience makes its way into every artwork while Nature reminds us we are all part of something larger." 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.
