She sees herself very much as a 'natural light' photographer, creating narrative compositions through photography and Michelle is highly adept at manipulating them through a plethora of digital tools and software.
Not only are her skills in demand for books and album art, she also collaborates with a worldwide list of fashion models and agencies to perfect unique portfolios of work.
Her latest Autumn 2019 Releases, published by Wishbone Fine Art, has favoured using exclusively resin finished limited editions (the public praised similar pieces from her debut series), creating a photographic effect unique to the UK art market - blending art & striking photo realism, with breathtaking colours.
The artwork you see are altered from real life photography, scenes which are pre-planned and visualised with unparalleled levels of detail including: the model, wardrobe, location and any other objects needed for the shoot itself; Michelle will never lose site of the meaning she is seeking to imbue into her art.
After the creative work of choosing which photo will make the cut as the 'artwork,' she the begins the next skilled stage of altering it on screen.
Dreams and emotions lay as the driving force behind her work, whether that be her inner most nightmares (also known as 'Dark Art'), story books, fairy tales or far off dreams.
Michelle's art represents a remembrance of her inner world, her experiences, achievements and loses. 'Dolly' looks to remind us, as an accomplished digital artist, that life is about love and sorrow & her wish is that the art connects with you and your emotions!
