Michelle's paintings can be called a balance between aesthetic contemplation and poetic narrative, a visible declaration of an archaic language of the soul. Much more than just abstract paintings, her work is layered, lyrical, euphoric yet pensive, an energy going far beyond expressionism. The presence or absence of colour hues is a specific way to propel wishes, hopes and dreams. Colour is a living and pulsating entity that offers an agreement between the person painting and the person looking at the canvas, resulting in a profound connection between the inner world of the viewer and the desire of the artist to convey. Feelings, emotions and the scarcity of beauty in current times inspire Michelle Hold to paint, creating abstract works which hold a special connection with the viewer, a personal moment frozen in time where all is possible.
