Having looked at other artist's sites it became clear that I need to provide whoever (if anyone!) is looking at this site with a bit of blurb about myself. In a nutshell I'm a 32 year old married  mother of two boys and I live a small village in South Northamptonshire. In 2005 I picked up a paint brush for the first time since leaving school having felt an 'itch' when watching my mother-in-law paint. I now spend whatever free time I have painting. I paint solely with oils and am entirely self-taught. I adore the human figure and find the human face fasinating. Over the past year I have had a number of commissions from friends and family and now finally have the confidence to show my work to a wider audience and, hopefully, gain more commissions.
I hope you enjoy looking at my work and would welcome any comment you may have. Please feel free to email your comments or queries to michellesmart@smartportraits.co.uk
Thank you for taking the time to look at my site.
