About Me

Michelle Webb: Stockton-on-Tees, Teesside, United Kingdom; I live in Teesside in the North East of England. By day I wear a high vis jacket, a hard hat and get covered in mud as a geologist, but in the evenings I like to clean up and get covered in colour instead! I'm 53, have a grown up son, a granddaughter and 5 very happy cats. I went to art college 37 years ago, and did the odd sketch since then. For the last 15 years I've been making mixed-media art canvases, doing some art journalling and altered art pieces. I dabbled in a bit of watercolours and oil painting too. l just love putting paint on new blank canvases, be it mixed-media or fine art. I occasionally like to get the sewing machine out and do a spot of sewing too. I just love all crafts and can change my mind like the weather, flitting from one project to the next. But don't we all. For the last 2 years I've been making wheel thrown pottery, its very addictive, and I also like making Raku pottery in my garden too. Love the danger of it. xx
