Michelle's Art Gallery
MC Novelties art gallery is a small collection of my creations to show you the type of art that I enjoy creating. Drawing and painting are really what I love to do but I also create graphic and commercial art; mostly for my job as a graphic designer. I have been employed for 20 + years at a local sign shop where I design signs, vehicle graphics, print advertising, logo design and other commercial art items.
Among the artwork that I have displayed below are pieces from my high school or college days, as well as many more recent art pieces and commercial art I have done for my employer or for friends. I have progressed in my technique through the years, although having a full time career and two children does make it difficult to find time to create quality pieces as I would like to. I am working towards creating more artwork and less doing craft and vendor fairs with my crochet projects. My home is small and keeping that kind of inventory is difficult. I am hoping to get a little "SHE-SHED" to use as a studio to keep my artwork and tools in and to get away from everything to create. That is a dream and for now I'm satisfied with what I have.
Let me know if you like what you see. I love to hear from you, you can use the contact me page.

Visit my blog if you would like to see some of my art progression as I occasionally post photos of the many steps I take to create an art piece. I will be posting new art as I have it and I hope you will revisit my gallery and share it with your friends who would be interested. Entering pieces in the local fair is something I enjoy every year and have encouraged my children to do the same in hopes that it will peak their interest in the arts. I strongly believe that the arts can only enhance an individuals self esteem and is a great way to express oneself and let of some tension in creation. I also believe that if an individual puts all their love, talent and expression into an art piece there is no bad art. I do enter competitions in attempt to win of course but I also have full respect for anyone who is confident enough to "bare their soul" when they display their art publicly. I find that in this smaller community that people tend to favor pieces that have less emotion so I tend to enter pieces locally that have more "generic" subject matter.
