Meg's biography of Michele...cause she's not a 'let's talk all about me' kinda girl. And MySpace is all about talking about yourself. Here goes:
"My name is Michele Soares. I currently work as a textile designer but my true passion is painting. I have sold many paintings in various venues (Fall River Art Association, The Narrows Center for The Arts www.ncfta.org, Gallery Z in Providence, RI, Little Compton Community Center in Little Compton, RI, Sleeper St. Cafe in Boston). Please feel free to take a peek at my paintings in my photos. Meg likes them a lot. She's my biggest fan!I'm also a handloom weaver from my home studio. I make colorful and textural scarves, table runners and rugs. Painting takes up alot of my time but I do manage to squeeze in a little weaving every now and then. If I could I would do both all day!! love it....
ARTIST BIOMichele Soares was born and raised in Fall River, Massachusetts. Her parents and brother originally emigrated from the island of Sao Miguel, Azores. She was raised in a bilingual and culturally diverse household. She graduated from the University of Massachusetts at Dartmouth with a degree in Textile Design and Fiber Arts. Using the skills from her degree and career, she has ventured into the world of fine arts. Michele works as an upholstery designer for a decorative home furnishings company. Working as a designer has motivated her to experiment with specific embellishments of the Textile field. In her paintings she uses yarn, fabric, paper, dyes, and inks. Michele is also a handloom weaver creating trendy and unique scarves and table runners from her home studio. She loves adding her feminine touch to all of her work. She embellishes her fabric using buttons, ribbons and collected items. She creates her pillows and purses with samples of her own cloth along with her collection of vintage fabrics. Michele expresses her emotions thru her work using a very colorful pallette and textural elements close to her heart.
