The Discerner Michelle Hold ‘In a world of fast, expanding technological know how, and an expanding number of world peoples who know not who they are, it is invigorating and reassuring to meet people whose firm beliefs are put into practice, to benefit, enliven, and make better, not just themselves but the lives of others. One of them is Michelle Hold, who as artist has made her mark as abstract painter, and carved out an identity for herself. She shamelessly makes vibrant, dynamic, polychromatic, colourful, resourceful, meaningful, strong, sometimes large- sized paintings, that invigorate, excite and inspire. She panders neither to taste ( except of course her own), nor current fads, or the kind of eye- catching, voguish, detritus that currently passes as art, and which is poured out by the ton in every arts quarter of the world!’ Barry Martin, artist & curator “Untangling the chains” - £3150 Pigments and acrylics on canvas 120 x 120cm T: +393347864141 E: [email protected] W: michellehold.com For all enquiries, please contact Michelle or Celine at [email protected] or 020 7491 9925 www.thediscer ne r . c om 9
