  Missy is a watercolor artist currently living in Chelsea, Michigan. During the few years since she has been painting, she has developed a true passion for watercolors, preferring their transparent quality and fluidity as well as the wide variety of techniques that watercolors offer. For Missy, it’s all about the color. She is drawn to bright, vivid colors and strives to incorporate them into her work. Currently, she uses only transparent watercolors to achieve the luminous quality she desires. In the last year, she has expanded her techniques to include watercolor batiks on rice paper. This process, which involves layering watercolor and wax as a resist, gives her work a more textured quality. Missy finds her inspiration in nature. Many of her compositions are derived from the extensive flower garden in her backyard. She particularly enjoys creating unique, intimate portraits of the colorful flowers that she grows and loves. Missy is a member of the Michigan Watercolor Society, Ann Arbor Women Artists and the Chelsea Center for the Arts. This year, one of her watercolors was a finalist in the Michigan Watercolor Society 2012 annual exhibition in Lansing and her works have been accepted in several AAWA juried shows during the last few years.
