This is me

This is Me

Hi! I’m Michaele Cooper — artist, printmaker, charcoal smudger, and all-round creative firecracker! I live and breathe art, and nothing lights me up more than a blank page, a stick of charcoal, or a fresh plate ready to print.

My heart beats in abstract rhythms — bold gestures, moody shadows, and the beautiful chaos that happens when you let instinct lead the way. I’m especially drawn to charcoal for its rawness and immediacy, and I dive deep into printmaking, exploring everything from linocut to monotype and beyond. Each piece is an exploration, a moment captured in texture and tone.

Art isn't just what I do, it’s how I connect. I absolutely love sharing what I know, whether I’m teaching workshops, mentoring emerging artists, or just chatting over ink-splattered tables. Watching someone find their own spark — that’s magic.

So whether you’re here to look, learn, or leap into the creative unknown with me — welcome. Let’s make a little mess and a lot of meaning.
