Finalist in The New Yorker's 2012 Eustace Tilley Book-Bag Contest.
"Michelle is not only a fantastic artist, she’s fun to work with! She is always very responsive and exceeds expectations in her delivered work."
- Shay Gallagher, Account Manager, Carbon 8
“Beneath Michelle’s illustration lies powerful observational skills, and the exquisite crafting of each image with delicate cross hatching and efficient line drawing techniques, demonstrates her talent for both looking and drawing. This skill gives her work a certain serenity and a gentle clever humour. Soft yet strong like a baseball bat in bubble wrap her illos will hit you clean out of the park!”

Natsuki Otani,
http://illustrationrally.blogspot.com/“Michelle’s put an edge on the very traditional medium of pen and ink with cross hatching. Her style was perfect for the job we needed to do, traditional with a twist. She has her own interesting ideas but knows how to walk that line between pushing her agenda and delivering what we needed. She worked quickly, took direction well and after the first four illustrations, we hired her to do several more.”
