Hello I’m Michelle! Welcome to my creative corner for play, for peace, for returning to self.
I LOVE working with colour, pattern and textures!(although it has taken some time for me to fall in love with that magic sauce again 🩷)
In a previous era, I had spent over a decade building a fashion retail business out of this creativity. Along the way, what felt light and joyful to me turned into a lot of pressure. It became defined by output, “is this good enough to sell”, and really beneath it all, am I good enough. Eventually burnout, and not the dramatic blowout kind. I just went quiet with a slow insidious dimming.
What led me back wasn’t a fix-it plan or some next big goal, it was returning little by little to creative acts powered by curiosity, meeting myself again each time.
My focus is creating from joy again, however it may look like in this current season. There is no defined roadmap and I’m responding to feels aligned. So thank you for being in the middle with me!
