Welcome to Michele Lindsley, ASA Marketing Coordinator
The ASA has a brand new volunteer position and a new volunteer. Welcome Michele Lindsley. Michele is also an instructor at the ASA and the featured Artist of the Month for April. Michele made Depoe Bay her permanent home in 2016 having traded in the hot Arizona desert for the lush green woods and thundering Oregon coastlines. Smart gal! Michele is a mixed media artist. Her colorful and imaginative creations are a mixture of mediums including acrylics, polymer clays, collage, and “doodads” all layered on a variety of substrates. Michele states they reflect, in part, who she is and how she sees herself in the world.
Michele tells us that throughout her life she has occasionally taken art classes but most of her “art education” is based on first-hand experience and observation. She has enjoyed visiting many great destinations in North America, the Caribbean, Europe and the South Pacific and felt great pleasure standing toe-to-toe with great works of art.
"My business and marketing background includes 20+ years in promoting worldwide luxury travel", says Michele. "Today, I am one of many ASA member artists who displays work in the Beachstone Gallery. I teach a few classes. Why do more? Why help market ASA? Because getting other people excited about participating in art, buying it or making it, is rewarding. I like sharing the opportunity to create. Art enriches our lives.”
