Philippine Ambassador Leslie Gatan with his portrait sketched by Michelle Chermaine "Local artist Michelle Chermaine is a self taught, multi-talented artist whose work is inspired by a wide range of symbols and imagery.

Rather than a direct representation of pagan symbols, her work carries a universal message and an appeal that resonates with people of every faith." Kyle West - Toronto Examiner
