This series has presented Michelle with opportunities for neurological learning and conceptual visual challenges.

In her latest set of paintings (i.e “Mind on Picasso” and “Mind on Mondrian”), Michelle takes the brain on a new and challenging journey. She has begun paying tribute to artists she admires by incorporating an image of the brain into the styles of work that have resonated with her.
