Michelle Kathleen Creative Collective

Color, texture, and a studio built around slowing down.

I'm Michelle — a painter and pattern designer working out of a home studio outside Canton, Georgia. My work moves between original canvases, digital pieces, and surface designs meant for fabric, paper, and home goods, plus classes for anyone who wants to get their hands into it too.
