Underneath a matter-of-fact exterior, Mickey is a patient, enthusiastic and courageous student of art.

Her plain spoken manner and often prosaic concerns contrast with playful and fanciful ideas resulting in iconic imagery with a light, sometimes humorous feeling.

Her economical choices of line and color add fullness and simplicity to her soft landscapes, ambiguous figures and emblematic animals. At 33 years of age, this is Mickey's first immersive experience with art.
