Michelle Armas

Michelle Armas is an abstractionist painter working mostly on canvas from Atlanta, Georgia, where she lives with her daughter and husband. She grew up in Texas in a creative Spanish family, studied graphic design at the Portfolio Center in Atlanta and worked at Landor in New York before paintings made in the evenings and at weekends led her to become a full-time artist.

Her studio practice now spans original paintings, prints, commissions and licensing, with work made for dealers and brands, and she has been a working artist for twenty years. She also runs Catalyst Membership, a programme for other creatives, and hosts workshops in her backyard studio where she teaches her raw canvas painting technique.
