BIO
Michelle Rothwell
Founder & Principal, Holistic Creativity, LLC
"Helping people to explore their Creativity, conquer their limitations, and experience deep creative fulfillment is the most important work of my life. As a practicing artist and teacher, I have come to realize a personal path of creative engagement and joy that I did not know was even possible. Allow me to share my discoveries and realizations that can benefit you so profoundly".
Michelle is a practicing Fine Artist whose work has been shown nationally in solo, juried, and group shows. Her work brings attention to the clash between Nature’s elegant forms, materials, and ecosystems and the relative crudeness of man-made objects, substances, and processes. She explores the relationships that merge the elegant forms and functions of Nature with the Artifacts created by human beings. Michelle’s Virtual Sculptures, Virtual Environments, Collages, and Drawings juxtapose organic and inorganic surfaces in order to engage our innate sensory awareness of our surroundings.
As an Associate Professor of Art, Media, and Design, she has nearly 20 years of experience as a college professor and mentor. During her career in academia, she created multiple degree programs for several colleges and universities, designed dozens of courses, and mentored hundreds of students and peers. She is the founder of the Game Art, BFA program from the former University of the Arts, Philadelphia PA.
Mrs. Rothwell's professional experience spans several creative fields. She has served in a wide range of professional roles, including Director of Information Architecture, Interaction/Interface/Experience Designer, Virtual Reality Researcher, Product Developer, Design Consultant, and Freelance Designer. Her client list includes DuPont, Proctor & Gamble, GlaxoSmithKline, Merrill Lynch, AstraZeneca, SAP, Qwest Communications and Unisys.
In 2015, Michelle designed and launched the Holistic Creativity system. It combines her experience in art, media, and design with more than 25 years of experience devoted to ancient Spiritual-healing and Mindfulness modalities.
