Michele Askori

Visual Artist

Los Angeles, USA

Artist driven by the transformative power of art. In the face of adversity, my breast
cancer diagnosis in March 2020 sparked a profound metamorphosis, propelling me
towards a life immersed in painting.
With an unyielding spirit, I fearlessly push the boundaries of conventional art,
venturing into uncharted territories and experimenting audaciously with diverse
materials. Every artistic endeavor becomes a limitless voyage of self-expression, a
testament to the strength that arises from vulnerability, the resilience that flourishes
through struggle, and the infinite beauty within us all.

In the heart of the earth, where shadows play,<br /> Lies a cave, where time has lost its way,<br /> Within its depths, a timeless realm,<br /> Where past and future meet at the helm.</p> <p>Beneath the stalactites, in darkness profound,<br /> Echoes of ages, a mystical sound,<br /> Time is a river, flowing through stone,<br /> In this ancient chamber, it's eternally known.</p> <p>The cave, a keeper of secrets untold,<br /> A sanctuary for stories of old,<br /> As moments flutter, like bats on the wing,<br /> Time, like a specter, does its own thing.</p> <p>The stalagmites stand like silent sentinels,<br /> Guardians of history, of hidden spells,<br /> With each drip of water, each whispered sound,<br /> Time dances on, forever unbound.</p> <p>The cave, a portal to the endless night,<br /> Where stars above and earth unite,<br /> In this subterranean world, they're one,<br /> As time keeps moving, never undone.</p> <p>Though seconds may fly, like fleeting dreams,<br /> Within the cave, nothing's as it seems,<br /> For time is a concept, a fleeting breath,<br /> In this timeless sanctuary, there's life after death.</p> <p>So enter the cave, embrace the sublime,<br /> Where time is but an illusion in its prime,<br /> In the heart of darkness, where mysteries thrive,<br /> The cave and time together, forever will strive.</p> <p>Michele Askori<br /> Askori Art<br />

A mouth, a gateway to worlds unknown, Where countless things from within are shown. Words of power, whispers soft and loud, The user's realm, where thoughts are endowed. From truth's embrace to deceit's cruel flight, A mouth reveals its wielder's inner sight. With care, let kindness bloom and darkness cease, For in your words, the essence of your peace. Speak with purpose, let wisdom resound, For in a mouth, boundless possibilities abound. Michele Askori. Askori Art.

Bon appétit, a phrase so sweet, A culinary wish, before we eat, It beckons to savor every bite, To indulge in flavors, pure delight. A symphony of aromas arise, As dishes tempt our eager eyes, From fragrant spices to savory herbs, A feast of flavors, our taste buds disturb. In the kitchen, a dance of skill, Where ingredients blend and fulfill, From simmering pots to baking dough, A culinary journey, let it flow. Bon appétit, let us gather 'round, To share this meal, profound, For food unites us, heart and soul, Nourishing connections, making us whole. With each bite, a story unfolds, A tale of passion, as taste beholds, From delicate morsels to hearty fare, A gastronomic adventure we dare. So let us raise our glasses high, Toast to flavors that satisfy, Bon appétit, may we cherish the feast, A celebration of life, a culinary masterpiece. Michele Askori. Askori Art

In a world of boundless imagination, There lived a boy named Arnaldo, full of fascination, With nimble fingers and curious eyes, He found joy in simple things, to his surprise. Amidst a pile of discarded paper, worn and old, Arnaldo discovered treasures, stories yet untold, He folded and creased, with creative glee, Breathing life into the newsprint, wild and free. With each paper boat he set adrift, Arnaldo sailed across imaginary rifts, Exploring vast oceans, in his mind's eye, Unleashing dreams that reached the sky. He crafted airplanes, soaring through the air, As his laughter echoed, without a care, The newspaper became a world, all his own, Where adventures awaited, seeds were sown. In the rustle of pages, his imagination soared, Arnaldo's dreams, the newspaper roared, With every origami figure he skillfully made, His creativity flourished, in every cascade. For within the humble newspaper's embrace, Arnaldo found magic, a wondrous space, He played, he dreamed, his spirit unfurled, In a world where possibilities swirled. So let us learn from this boy so wise, To find joy in the simplest of ties, For in the realm of imagination's sway, Newspaper dreams can light our way.<br /> Michele Askori Askori Art

"In nature's embrace, graffiti on rocks, A rebellious art that defies the clocks, Colors vibrant, sprayed with wild intent, Transforming stones with messages sent. Spray cans dance, leave their vibrant mark, An urban symphony amidst nature's spark, Bold strokes on rugged surfaces collide, Voices of expression, cannot be denied. Amidst serene landscapes, a striking contrast, Where creativity meets ruggedness, steadfast, Words and images, layered in vibrant hues, Whispering tales of artists and their views. These rocks, once stoic, now come alive, With graffiti's energy, they strive, To break free from their earthly shell, Unleashing stories, where art does dwell. Amidst the wilderness, this unexpected sight, Graffiti on rocks, a captivating delight, Reminding us of art's boundless reach, And the power of expression it can teach. So let us admire this bold fusion, Nature and art, in harmonious collusion, Graffiti on rocks, a testament to human will, Creating beauty, where the wild meets skill." Michele Askori Askori Art

In a world filled with longing and desire, Where hearts yearn for warmth, to set them on fire, Love, hugs, and kisses, the sweetest bliss, In their embrace, we find pure solace. Amidst the chaos and the endless race, A simple plea resonates with grace, For love's sweet touch, for affection's glow, To feel the tenderness that love bestows. So if you see me, with eyes full of care, In a moment, let our souls dare to share, A gentle kiss, a connection so true, A spark of love, between me and you. For in those kisses, magic does unfold, A language of love, beyond words untold, They heal, they comfort, they ignite the soul, In each tender touch, love takes its toll. So let us not hold back, when love draws near, In this fleeting moment, let's banish all fear, For everybody needs love's tender caress, In kisses, hugs, and love, we find our happiness. . . .

"THE GRAPES" 61 x 73,5 inches Acrylic "In vineyards kissed by the sun's warm embrace, Where clusters of grapes adorn the place, I sing a tribute to this wondrous fruit, Whose nectar of life we eagerly salute. Upon the vine, they hang in clusters tight, Glistening jewels in the soft daylight, Each grape a treasure, a world in its own, In the world of wine, their legend has grown. From verdant fields to ancient hillsides steep, The grapes emerge from their peaceful sleep, Through seasons' dance and nature's care, They ripen, flourish, and thrive with flair. In red and white, their colors do shine, A spectrum of flavors, like aged wine, With every bite, a burst of delight, A symphony of tastes, a pure, sweet flight. Oh, the grapes, a gift from the earth's embrace, In every form, they bring us grace, From raisins sweet to wine's deep embrace, The grapes, a reminder of nature's pace. So raise your glass, let us all partake, In this timeless ritual, let's celebrate, The grapes, a symbol of life's purest joy, A gift from the earth, no one can destroy." Michele Askori Askori Art

Azure waters, a world of endless expanse, Where sea creatures whirl in an intricate dance, Coral gardens, in hues of vibrant grace, In the sea world's beauty, we find our place. From the tiny krill to the giants of the sea, In this watery world, they live wild and free, Beneath the surface, where wonders unfurl, In the heart of the ocean, a magical swirl. In the sea world's depths, a treasure trove, Where dolphins and whales gracefully rove, With every ebb and flow, the tides do tell, Of a world so vast, in which life dwells. So let us cherish this watery domain, Where the sea world's beauty will forever reign, A world of wonder, beneath the deep blue sea, In this aquatic kingdom, we find mystery and glee."<br /> .<br /> .<br /> .<br /> Michele Askori Askori Art

"Part 1: The Hearts' Individual Journeys</p> <p>In a world of emotions, there were two hearts, each unique in its own way. The first heart was black, adorned with tiny dots, each marking a past hurt or a scar of experience. It had seen its share of sorrow and pain, and it wore them like badges of honor. This heart had learned resilience through its struggles and could empathize deeply with the pain of others.</p> <p>The second heart, on the other hand, was a vibrant burst of colors. It embraced life with open arms and reveled in the beauty of the world. Each beat painted a new adventure, and its exuberance was infectious. It had a knack for turning the ordinary into something extraordinary, and its joyful nature was a beacon of light to everyone it touched."<br /> .<br /> .<br /> .<br /> HEART 1<br /> Acrylic on Wood Panel<br /> 9.5 x 8.5 inches<br /> .<br /> .<br /> .<br /> MICHELE ASKORI<br /> ASKORI ART<br /> LA CONTEMPORARY ARTIST

"Part 2: The Dance of the Hearts</p> <p>One day, these two hearts crossed paths, and something magical happened. The black heart found solace in the colorful heart's presence. The vibrant heart brought a new kind of energy, filling the spaces between the dots with a kaleidoscope of experiences. It taught the black heart that healing could be just as beautiful as the scars themselves.</p> <p>Conversely, the colorful heart was humbled by the black heart's wisdom. It learned that life wasn't always painted in bright hues, and there were moments of darkness and pain. Through these lessons, it discovered depth and resilience it had never known before.</p> <p>As they spent time together, the two hearts learned from one another. They danced to the rhythm of life, celebrating the highs and comforting each other during the lows. They realized that they were stronger together, and that their differences complemented each other beautifully.</p> <p>In this union, they found a balance between experiencing the colors of life and appreciating the wisdom that came from the dots of the past. Together, they became a perfect blend of compassion, resilience, and joy, sharing their unique stories with the world. Their journey reminded everyone that even the most contrasting hearts could find harmony when they beat in unison."<br /> .<br /> .<br /> .<br /> HEART 2<br /> Acrylic on Wood Panel<br /> 9.5 x 8.5 inches<br /> .<br /> .<br /> .<br /> MICHELE ASKORI<br /> ASKORI ART<br /> LA CONTEMPORARY ARTIST<br />
