It’s been a while but here we are. I have been busy providing new work for North Street Gallery which is in Bedminster, Bristol, UK. I manage the Gallery with 3 other artists and we promote local emerging artists alongside established ones. We are a community inspired Gallery and I absolutely love giving new artists a chance to promote their work in an established Gallery. North Street is buzzing these days, home to Upfest, the Urban Paint Festival which draws artists from all over the world. Bristol is a hub of creative talent and I am proud to be part of that magic. My latest paintings are all here on the website. The top 5 paintings have bespoke frames so are slightly more expensive than the four underneath. I decided to have 2 price structures as we are living in difficult times financially and art is a luxury. I also sell prints, the link is on my About Me page.

I am also available for commissions. I also sell prints and you can find them at https://www.iamfy.co/shop/miche. Recently, with the success of the film ‘The Queen’s Gambit’, there has been an upsurge in playing chess, particularly online, and I have received a flurry of commission requests for specific chess piece compositions, as well as poker card and poker chip compositions. I am always happy to undertake commissions; the requests keep my own ideas fresh. Please DM or email me for more info and any of your own requests. I paint anything within reason 😜. With lockdown beginning to end, North Street Gallery is looking to reopen on April 12. 4 artists, including…
