Artwork Description

2018. 70x100x2cm. Acrylic on canvas. Finished with Liquitex Gloss Medium and Varnish. Unfinished edges.

It was time I painted a large version of our bird of paradise. I worked from a photo taken in our backyard and decided to tackle it in acrylic instead of my usual oil paint. In addition to being a larger version of my 8"x10" panel painting, this is also a more mature version of the flower in the small painting. I basically painted the mum version of the first painting.

Artist Bio

Michelle Angelique is an award-winning figurative/portrait artist and Live Wedding Painter based in Sydney, NSW. Previously studying bachelor degrees in Psychology and Music, she holds a Diploma in Interactive Digital Media (Concept Art) from Design Centre Enmore. Currently, she creates art full-time with personal work, commissions and live wedding painting.

Michelle's work walks the line between real and fantastical through her use of mixed media techniques to create an ethereal aesthetic that is still grounded in reality. Each piece is carefully crafted to achieve a colourful, romantic and whimsical world on canvas or wood

Her emotional self-portraits, often set in nature, reflect the inner workings of how she deals with important moments in her life, encouraging quiet contemplation in her viewers. Her landscapes emphasize the extravagance and beauty of the places she visits and allows you to feel as though you have stepped into another world.

Michelle's work is constantly evolving alongside her own life experiences. Never one to be complacent, she is always experimenting and discovering ways to share her story such that others may connect with it.

If Michelle's art can speak to a complete stranger - move them, inspire them - then she has done her job.
