Art Of Alicia Michelle

Textural Expression in Acrylic and Mixed Media

Hi, it’s me, Alicia Michelle.

I’m a Central Florida based Artist and nature obsessed lover of the macabre. Raised on horror movies and spending my childhood up in a tree every chance I got has absolutely shaped the different themes portrayed in my artwork throughout my life. The root of my inspiration for all of my work stems back to playing with textures. Using texture as a form of expression in my work has been something I’ve continued to explore since my college days at Jacksonville university over 20 years ago. I’m constantly in awe of nature’s beauty and all she has to offer and am always finding inspiration in the smallest details - the nooks and crannies if you will. It’s this freedom of expression through texture that allows me to fully realize what each individual piece will become and how it engages each viewer.

Where can you find my work?
