Hi, I’m Michelle. I’m an artist and printmaker based in country Victoria. I live in the wild and windy hills of South Gippsland. My husband and I have a little farm atop a hill with views for miles. Needless to say I feel very blessed to live here.
I previously worked for the Victorian State Government in land management which gave me an appreciation for the incredible diversity and uniqueness of Australian flora and landscape. Later on, I studied and worked as a graphic designer and spent many years honing my skills in that field.
I have now combined my past experiences with my passion for painting and printmaking, resulting in works that blend my daily surrounds with my love for design.
