Artist Statement
I find my art is an outlet to deal with many of life ups and downs. Some of my more meaningful pieces I would like for people to connect with them, some how in the same way as music, to see that they are not the only ones who deal with life's struggles; if they want they can take it not for what it is but for what they believe it to be. Others, I hope to provoke smiles, in some cases laughter; or people can enjoy it just simply as decoration as some of my simpler pieces are. Ultimately I hope to continue creating whatever inspires me, keep learning and to live my dream, earn a living doing what I love. For more visit my official website: www.artbymichellecollins.com !
