Michelle Breton
Michelle Breton: Confidence of Exploration. There is a maturity of handling and a confidence of exploration in the paintings of Michelle Breton that are beyond her years as a painter.
More than just the painter lies behind her creative experience, Breton having spent many years in the theatre and on television. You have to be sure of yourself to step on stage, and this assurance can be seen and felt in her recent paintings. But why change from the stage on which to sport, for canvas - from the very public to the very private?
Breton says that she always felt that there was something more she wanted to do, so she tried painting and sculpture. That did it. She fell for painting in a big way and hasn't stopped. And the freedom and pleasure she gets from painting is there to share.
