Michele Victoria Helen Kraft

Hello! My name is Michele Victoria Helen Kraft, my signature  name is Victoria Helen, a salute to the grandmothers that came before me.

I started to focus painting in 2015, being influenced from an animated world in and out of my head. Animals, plants, and fish. I revel in creating snapshots in an animated world of my current protagonist. A baby chicken, a family of owls, crazy cats, or sea creatures going about their daily life. I want to bring smiles to the faces of their admirers, and bring a moment of escape to the onlooker.

Painting is a relatively new world for me. I was given a box of acrylic paints from a dear  friend, during a difficult time in my life. She, already living a successful artists life,  was encouraging me to start this creative life. I had started to dabble a little bit, and then it started to grow. I started to let myself create.

Thank you for taking the time to stop in and read my statement and look at my work.
