An exciting contemporary artist, Michelle's bold abstract paintings are infused with vibrant strokes that create a strong impression. Reminiscent of the calligraphic forms in Chinese ink paintings, Michelle uses nuanced gestures that evoke the effects of rain. Bridging Chinese ink painting traditions such as calligraphy and Western techniques, The First Raindrops is incorporated with sensuous textures. Savor the first drops of rain and embrace the moment. The rain will stop, hope is never lost. Michelle Yap graduated from Central St. Martins College of Arts and Design in London.
