BRINGING BACK NOSTALGIC MEMORIES
Hi, I'm Michelle Vella — a Toronto-based pop artist known for my bold, vibrant portraits and signature big eyes style.
I've always been fascinated by the power of nostalgia and the emotional connections we form with cultural icons. Growing up, the joy and escapism of music, movies, and legendary figures filled my world with inspiration — and today, I get to reimagine those feelings through my art.
I believe in the power of art to spark connection, stir emotion, and bring joy into everyday life. My portraits celebrate the icons who shaped our cultural history, evoking the memories and energy that continue to inspire us.
When you collect my work, you're not just buying a piece of art — you're embracing a story, a memory, a piece of history that lives on. You're joining a community that celebrates the legends who continue to make us smile.
With gratitude and a big-eyed smile,
Michelle Vella
