about
Michele L. Squibb

I have liked to draw since I was a child growing up on Long Island. I loved Art in school, however my grandmother said, “You’ll never be able to make a living from it so take some clerical courses,” which I did. Right out of high school, I went to work in the clerical field and continued working for over 40 years. During that time, I continued to draw and paint, taking various courses to increase my abilities.
I’m retired now and continue to paint, mostly in watercolor, but recently started acrylics classes. Having lived by the water the majority of my life, you will see that reflected in my paintings of the ocean, streams, lakes, rivers, etc. Other favorite subjects are lighthouses, barns, animals and pet portraits.
If you are interested in purchasing any of my available works, please contact me.
