“Disciple of the great Aurélie Nemours, French pioneer of purist abstraction, Michele Schmite has been pursuing since the 50's demanding art works which gradually open up to figuration. Large formats, diptych, or triptych with strong colors, backgrounds striped with primitive graphic designs, everything reveals the happiness of painting outside the box. The work of art of an independent woman."- François Baudot
