Artist biography for Muriel Moret
 
  I am a self-taught painter born in France in 1976 and a proud Australian citizen. I am lucky to live in one of the most beautiful cities in the world: Sydney.

I started painting a few years ago after seeing a piece from an in a small
art gallery in London, where I lived for 3 years. The striking combination of turquoise again a dark background was like flicking a switch. I decided to
go to the art shop, bought a few tubes of paint and a paintbrush and
started creating my own modern art!

I was craving bright colours I could only find in paint. It seems that I was not the only one in this situation as the response to my work has been much more than I could have anticipated: so far, I have sold around 300 paintings since 2002 and receive many commissions from Australian buyers and from overseas.
Sizes vary from small to huge... such as a 1.5x3 metre long piece called Opulence, commissioned by a Californian customer.

I have also been working as a professional graphic and web designer since 1999. Graphic design has taught me to look at the world and its details in a new light and it inspires me to create strong graphical patterns from shapes and colours I mentally photography when looking around me.

I feel complete when I am creating new modern art and excited to help
others do the same while having fun through my painting classes.
I also teach craft and jewellery to children in schools and in my studio
and sell my handmade jewellery.
