About Michelle ngo

Thanks for visiting my page! I am a Northern Californian artist based in Sacramento, CA. 

Most of my paintings and illustrations focus on the dynamic forms of botanical and glass still life, as well as the beauty of simple places, stories, and objects.  In recent years, my art has evolved to express the experience of girlhood and the feminine essence with a touch of humor and softness.

As modern day philosopher, A. De Botton eloquently states about art, “A dominant impulse on encountering beauty is to wish to hold onto it, to possess it and give it weight…. There is an urge to say, ‘I was here, I saw this, and it mattered to me.”‘
