My name is Michelle Oravitz and I am a self representing artist who was raised in NY. I received a bachelor of Architecture degree in Philadelphia, and lived in San Francisco for two years. I worked as an architect and after a couple of years felt like it wasn't my calling. I have always been urged by many friends to become a professional artist but knew that it would all come in its time.
After moving to Florida, I got certified as an Ayurvedic practitioner and a yoga teacher. I have always been attracted to anything creative and the healing arts. I had a teacher who said that creativity and healing are very linked since they both produce energy through the hands. This is the core essence of what I believe my art to be, since I feel like I'm more of a channel than a creator. I never know what will come out the day I paint and always have the sentence in my head when looking at my painting in it's completion 'It's what came out'.
My goals are to paint the world happy and bring love and inspiration to everyone I encounter. I'm one of those people who likes to do a deed a day. I love what Oprah stands for and believe in looking at all the amazing things that are happening in the world rather than obsessing with the bad news that sells! I also believe that art, like music, has an ability to heal and create a vibration with its' presence.
My art has been featured on the album cover of Nacho Laguna, a recognized musician from Spain (http://www.nacholaguna.8k.com/) and in MetaCreative Magazine - August 2007 issue (http://www.mystikka.com/mcmjulyaug2007.pdf).
