Art Adventures 

Embark on an enchanting journey into the world of FCKcreative Studios, nestled along Queensland's picturesque Capricorn Coast. Here, you'll find the artistic vision of Shay B Michelle, aka Flamingo Chick—an eclectic & transdisciplinary artist whose work exhibits hints of Bauhaus, Primitivism, Expressionism & Abstract Impressionism.    Explore nature-inspired themes, from coral coastal waters to enigmatic mountain vistas, with a curiosity of the feminine, the ancient, sacred, & symbolic, at times divulging into the whimsical, & avant-garde. Traditional watercolour, oil & pastel methods seamlessly extend into the digital medium, including AI prompt crafting, pushing the boundaries of her expression & resulting in an original collection beautifully enriched with a respectful fusion of graphic design. This multifaceted approach lends itself to sophisticated yet joyful surface pattern designs, ideal for adorning fabrics and wallpaper. More recently Shay has developed one of her more playful projects with the arrival of FiiCKles. These imaginative creatures share a delicate innocence and expand on her fun and illustrative styles. Shay's art is guided by a carefully curated palette, where coral & sunset tones of orange, red, rose, & pinks harmoniously dance alongside rich & exotic emerald, jade, turquoise, & teals. Her work can be saturated with vibrant hues or capture fleeting moments in more subdued pastel tones. It can be ornamental & decorative, or authentically emotive in its simplicity. This delicate interplay between soft, muted tones & bold, intense pigments creates an effortless shift between moments of playfulness, & intriguing mystery, defining the very essence of her portfolio.
