Michelle is an artist and designer living and working in New York City, whose lifelong passion for the arts was nurtured during her upbringing on the South Shore of Massachusetts. She is a graduate of the Rhode Island School of Design, and though she is a working fashion designer by day, she has always maintained oil painting as a hobby throughout her life. Inspired by the natural beauty of Cape Cod, Michelle's paintings reflect summer days spent at her family beach house, with most of the work being completed on location in a single sitting. Her work retains the organic charm of nature, inviting viewers to experience the world through her eyes.
