She was skipping. Well not actually skipping. she was hurling the rope around with the biggest grin on her face. Thrashing it backwards and forwards. Hitting the ground with the length of skipping rope.
The joy. The rapture. For both of us.


Fantastic work Michelle. Love this piece and the ones underneath. I love the concept of the shadows and how each painting tells it’s own story of what’s going on above.
Great shadow – though my fav bit is the figure poking out from side. Works very well:)
Great strong composition, still with a whimsical edge. Nice. Something of the mood of a Charles Blackman schoolgirl going on here too….
It’s fantastic!
Gorgeous sentiment. Gorgeous painting.
I like the way your work is becoming less literal while still inspired by the same sort of precious every day moments. Looking forward to seeing your show at Gallery 775.
