Michelle East Studio Germantown Artist- New Work




Happy Valentine's Day from www.MichelleEastStudio.com! Hope everyone is having a lovely day!

I have been in the studio for most of the day creating and learning.
For the first time I experimented with India Ink and I loved the smoothness of it. It is very easy to work
with but you need to make sure it is dry before you move your paper.....
Anyway, it is always fun to try something new!

Tonight I did a quick painting of Roman in my digital studio!
He is always a willing model and I can't resist my boy!

Michelle East Studio (Germantown Artist) & Melissa Conroy Wooberry Dolls






What a great time I had photographing the Wooberry dolls for a project I am working on with Melissa Conroy for Le Bonheur Children's Hospital! www.wooberry.com to see these enchanting dolls!


The photos that I took will be used by author Melissa Conroy and the hospital in a display of images on the walls of the new hospital downtown Memphis! Our prayer is that the children will enjoy looking at these sweet dolls during their stay at the hospital.

While Melissa was at my studio, I also took some pictures for her to use as headshots. She's a beautiful & talented young woman with a big heart! Her current book is Poppy's Pants and you can find it at local book stores and on amazon. Your children will just love it!
