It’s Summer time and what’s more on brand than an artist whose specialty is making you feel like you’re sitting in a pool, under the surface, with a spiffy pair of goggles on? Michele Poirier Mozzone is an American working in oil, acrylic, and pastel – but to us, she’s a magician transporting viewers into an underwater world reminiscent of when we were little kids and Summer vacation was endless. Of her work, Michele has said, “I’m a painter captivated by the effects of water and sunlight on the figure. The human form has fascinated me forever. Through this endless well of inspiration, I’ve been able to not only refine my artistic skills but also, to explore universal and self-reflective themes.”
There’s so much feeling, depth (literally and figuratively), and an overall compelling nature to Michele’s work that we can’t quite put into words. Between nostalgia for our youth and complete intrigue in her process, Michele’s portfolio is definitely one you don’t want to skip out on.
