Michele Taras has been described by reporter Kitty Huisman as "a young Picasso, as if he fell into a rainbow."
Michele Taras began painting in 2018 after a long career as a fashion photographer. Articles have been written about her artwork in numerous magazines. In addition, her artwork has appeared on the pages of Elle magazine and Harper's Bazaar UK.
Her work has sold across North America, Europe, the Caribbean and the Middle East. Her characters are whimsical and imaginative, telling a story, while at the same time allowing the viewer to create their own. Her unique selection of colour combinations makes her work stand out and gives it her signature stamp.
Michele Taras takes inspiration from the world of imagination.
Although Taras does enjoy to explore different mediums, she mostly paints with acrylic paint. The fast-drying medium tends to keep up with her vivid imagination. Often texture is added into her work, only visible when touched by a stream of light from a window. Taras likes to paint on gallery-wrapped canvas. She also likes to paint the edges of the canvas so that framing then becomes optional, but not necessary. Take the time to closely examine details of the paintings, as from time to time you can find hidden meaning within the patterns and deeper symbolism than is at first observed.
