Michelle Mountain spent her early childhood growing up on a honey farm in South Africa which filled her with a sense of adventure and childlike wonder. Now living in Melbourne, she’s been lucky enough to spend the past 10 years working working with hundreds of artists in art galleries and museums around Victoria. Still a girl with her head in the clouds, Michelle is an aspiring children’s writer and illustrator. She values the slow, quiet moments of art making and finding joy in the small things.
