The artist

Hello, I'm Michele.

I'm an Australian artist working in mixed media, watercolour, charcoal and pencil — creating quiet, considered pieces from my studio on the Gold Coast.

" I'm drawn to quiet moments in nature — light through rock pools, the texture of ochre, the soft patterns of leaves and seasons.
— Michele

My work explores stillness — small details that ask you to slow down and look. Each original is one of a kind, layered slowly with mixed media on paper. Selected pieces are also available as fine-art prints on archival paper, so a piece you love isn't out of reach.

Alongside the paintings, I make handmade jewellery using natural gemstones, wire-wrapped sterling silver, and beach-found materials — small wearable pieces in the same considered style as the artwork.

Everything is created in my studio on the Gold Coast, Australia. For commissions, please get in touch.
