Hi I’m Michelle Therrien
I am an artist who is always curious and forever learning and experimenting.
I grew up in the city and now live in central Pennsylvania. Surrounded by beautiful countryside and lots of farmlands there is always inspiration out there waiting to be painted.
I have been creating and teaching for a few decades and love to share what I know. I enjoy painting landscapes, birds, animals and beautiful skies. Inspiration can strike at any moment and I am open to trying new things.
Color is a big thing in my work as I love to take the ordinary and use color to bring it to life in a new way. Imagining the world around me infused with rich color inspires me to show up every day and play.
When I’m not painting I love to go for long rides and enjoy the scenery, take lots of photos and find someplace quaint to eat with hubby.
This year I will be introducing video and pdf tutorials on painting with color and taking an ordinary photo to new heights.
Come paint with me and let’s have some fun together

Stay up-to-date on new work — follow along on Instagram where I frequently post sketches, works in progress and finished illustrations/projects. You can also find me on facebook.
