Michelle St.Laurent was born and
raised in New Jersey, the oldest of four children in a large Italian
family. At a young age, Michelle was inspired by Italian Renaissance
painters Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci. She began painting at the
age of 6 and asked for a new paint set on every birthday. In the first
grade she entered a poster contest creating a painting of all the Disney
characters marching in a parade. The judges disqualified her because
they could not believe she had done the painting by herself without
tracing. Her disappointment fueled her determination to become an
artist. Filling many sketchbooks by the age of ten, Michelle began
working with pastels drawing portraits of singers and movie stars. She
won first place in a local art show and her piece was displayed in the
town's City Hall.
Michelle made it her goal to become a
Disney Artist when her family moved to Florida at the age of 16. She
worked in the Magic Kingdom throughout high school then attended the Art
Institute in Ft. Lauderdale, majoring in Advertising and Design.
During college, Michelle created
artwork for night clubs and radio stations. Continuing to fill her
sketch books and grow as an artist, Michelle began working as a scenic
artist for theme parks and production companies, painting murals, show
sets and props.
After gathering years of experience,
Michelle was hired by Disney Design Group where she has spent the last
ten years creating artwork for Disney's Theme Park Merchandise and
special events. She trained, worked and was inspired by Disney legend
Ralph Kent for the first 6 years. Michelle began painting for the Disney
Galleries in 1998, and became a true Disney artist. Her talent evolved
with each piece."Through my paintings I aspire to recreate the classic Disney magic, which allows each of us to be a kid again. Michelle's
work has been featured at Disney's Festival of the Masters, Epcot's
Food and Wine Festival, Magic Kingdom's 999 Happy Haunts Event,
Disneyana Conventions and Disney Cruise Line.
Michelle now lives in Florida with her
husband and daughter, where she spends time painting on their front
porch. Her art feeds her life's passion and her family fuels her passion
for life.
