MICHELLE ST. LAURENT
- BIO (back

|
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.
