Hi my name Is Michelle Franklin

I am a fluid artist living in North Carolina.  I became interested in this art form as a travel nurse during the pandemic.  You can probably imagine, that I've seen a lot through these trying times.  In an effort to distract my mind, I initially learned how to color in adult coloring books.  Mainly, I wanted to learn about color theory and how to blend colors.  Adult coloring progressed to fluid art or abstract art.  I draw my inspiration from the people I meet in my travels.  Fluid art is my passion!

 

What is Fluid Art?

Fluid art is also called acrylic pour art.  It is a form of abstract impressionist artform where I pour various mediums on a canvas or other surfaces. The paint can be manipulated by using compressed air, palette knives, or gravity.   Each piece is one of a kind and therefore, can not be replicated.

Through the use of computer-generated enhancements, I create stunning videos for each art piece.  These videos can be viewed when you download the Artivive App. After downloading the app, just point your phone at the artwork and watch the magic!
