Michelle, an Art, Design, and Technology graduate, is deeply passionate about art history, archaeology, and architecture. Her York-based studio serves as a perfect space for creating large-scale art pieces and handling various projects, especially in oil and watercolour. She also teaches classes at her studio and elsewhere, nurturing the artistic skills of her students.

She has been a participant in York Open Studios and has showcased her work in various solo and group exhibitions across the UK. Currently, she is gearing up for a series of solo exhibitions scheduled to be held in art cafés in 2025.

Her oil paintings are meticulously crafted with fine brushes and delicate strokes, layering colours to achieve a distinctive tonal variation. This method highlights the unique interplay of shapes and colours, accentuating their intrinsic qualities.

The composition's simplicity shifts focus from superfluous elements to the inherent beauty of the subject, as perceived from its viewpoint.

Capturing the fleeting essence of time and place, these paintings draw inspiration from their subjects without striving for exact representation. The subtle blending of prominent and understated imagery lends a dreamlike quality to the pieces.

She is currently working on a new collection inspired by the exhilarating experience of wild swimming.

This collection continues her recognizable style and is available as both original works and giclee prints.
