Michelle Gilsey’s artistic flair developed at an early age from the moment she picked up her first crayon! Today, she has morphed into one of the most in-demand artists of whimsical and adorable animals and uses a variety of mediums such as acrylic paints, watercolors, ink and colored pencils to achieve her ultimate goal of making people smile. As such, Michelle’s inspiration usually comes from nature, animals and everyday items like garden pots, coffee cups, and watering cans. Her designs are extremely applicable as wall art, home décor, greeting cards, calendars and even murals. When not painting, drawing, or doodling, Michelle loves spending time with her three dogs, cat, husband, and granddaughter, who also loves to paint and create. Additionally, Michelle enjoys attending local yard sales, and traveling to flea markets in distant lands, as well as shop at consignment stores to find the perfect treasure that sparks her creativity. Lastly, laughing in life is fundamental to her artwork, so Michelle can frequently be found at comedy shows.
