My work consists of play and exploration of line, color, empty space, shape, mark making and texture while hoping to invoke a sense of discovery and rediscovery in the viewer. The use of organic abstract shapes, patterns or rhythms and hints of what they might represent, along with the use of images which invoke a sort of stillness and quiet reflection all play an important role in my work. My art serves as a reflection of my connection to nature and I hope to convey the sense of wonder and interconnectedness that I hold so dearly and that binds us all so profoundly to the natural world.
Michele Lorraine
Artist & Ceramics Teacher
For decades, I trained and worked as a Corporate Interior Designer. After becoming a mother, I returned to my first love, ceramics, and pursued art education. I've studied with accomplished Ceramic Artists locally, nationally, and internationally to deepen my craft. Since 2008, I've enjoyed teaching art to both children and adults, meeting them where they are and challenging them to grow their artistic knowledge and unique voice. In my own work, I value porcelain and stoneware fiber-clays (paperclay) to express my artistic ideas.
