2020

Michelle received a BFA in Studio Art from the University of Texas, Austin in 2007, with concentrations in Painting, Drawing, Sculpture and Serigraphy. Early exhibit highlights include group shows in Denver and Dallas between 2008 and 2010, a solo show in Boulder, Colorado at the Dairy Center for the Arts in 2011, and additional group shows between 2012 and 2014 in Houston, Texas. The two major bodies of work produced during those years, totaling 30 large scale oil paintings have been purchased by collectors in both Colorado and Texas, while a series of 100 smaller works in acrylic and oil have been sold locally and shipped to locations around the United States. More recently, in mid 2018, she returned to painting with a fresh perspective, venturing for the first time into abstraction. In 2020, Michelle showed with Mirus Gallery and 40 West Gallery in Denver winning ‘Best in Show,’ and an ‘Artistic Award of Excellence,’ with 40 West. Michelle’s work was featured in the Spring 17 Edition of ArtMaze Magazine, an international publication produced in the UK, and was included in ‘I Like Your Work Podcast’s summer exhibition titled ‘Congruence,’ curated by Bridgette Mayer with Bridgette Mayer Gallery. Michelle’s work was selected for an online show curated by artist Charlie Roberts for GIFC Worldwide, and was included in another online show titled ‘Artwork from Home,’ featuring work by artists from around the world, created during the pandemic, with Art Gym Denver in July. Her work was also selected by Max and Tanner of ‘The Tax Collection,’ for special mention with Create Magazine, online and on social media in September. Three large scale pieces were exhibited in a second 40West Gallery ‘Abstracts’ show at Colorado Mills between September 2020 and February of 2021.
