"The Space Between Real and Imagined"

Michele Geller

 

Michele Geller’s art exhibit is a diverse and wonderfully eclectic body of work covering different subject matter and mediums.  She works in Oils, Acrylic, and Watercolor.  She masterfully blends realism with abstract elements, creating a distinctive style.  Her inspiration comes from the beauty of nature, and her work captures the vibrant spirit of the region.

 

Artist Bio – Michele Geller

Michele is an artist living in Lee County, Florida. She mostly works in oils and acrylic on canvas but has done pieces in pencil, pastel, and watercolor. Michele’s work is eclectic, and each piece is a unique vision of what is inspiring her now, often infusing realism with abstract. Although she tends to be drawn to landscapes and nature, she specializes in pet portraits and is well adept at other subjects and styles including still-life, animals, and people portraits.  Michele is a NPAA juried art show winner and has had brick and mortar art gallery sales, on-line gallery sales, and has sold over 100 pieces of her art throughout the U.S.  Michele loves the challenge of commissioned work and collaborating with the customer to deliver a special one-of-a-kind piece of art.

Artist Statement:

Creating art is a life passion of mine and my studio is my happy place.  Nature and animals inspire me, and I love recreating the beauty of nature in a new and modern way.  My medium of choice is oil and acrylic paints, but I also paint in watercolor depending on the aesthetic I am looking for.  I love adding a bit of realism to an abstract background.  My body of work is an eclectic grouping of landscapes, ocean scenes, aquatica, florals, animals and pets.  At the end of the day, I want my art to make people happy and invoke calming emotions.

 

The exhibit continues through March 30, 2026.
