Michelle Hendry, Artist & Author – Portraits of Being

My work is always evolving. I am currently exploring a diverse repertoire of representational and abstract portraits that are increasingly a reflection of my personal, interior response to the outer world. Every painting is a portrait of a being, be it plant or animal. It is our connection with every being, and each other, that drives me to make art – portraits of being.

Working in acrylic and oil, often I use mixed media in my more abstract paintings. I want the viewer opened up to the world, seeing what they know in a new way. I want to the viewer to experience that connection.
