Bio:

Michele Tremblay is a Philadelphia sculptor and painter. Her work is a result of her interactions with nature and flowers in particular. She strives to delight and inspire joy for the viewer by connecting them to their relationship to the natural world.

Michele graduated from The Tyler School of Art and also studied at PAFA. Her sculptures have been exhibited in Philadelphia at various galleries and venues as well as The Philadelphia International Airport. Her work has also been selected for shows at The Noyes Gallery, Stockton College, The Delaware Center for Contemporary Art in Wilmington, Delaware and a private showing in Washington, D.C. Her work is also found in many private collections.

Most recently Michele, along with friend and fellow artist Polly Apfelbaum, designed a mural and worked with the Mural Arts Foundation to install the mural across the street from the room where Michele spent a month as a cancer patient. The mural is dedicated to the MDs, RNs and fellow patients on the oncology floor.

You can usually find Michele in her studio, but often can also find her walking around her neighborhood, taking photos of flowers with her iPhone, or just enjoying time with her husband.
