Michelle Cleveland
Michelle Cleveland
Jackson, MS
Paper / Sculpture
Guild member since 2011
Michelle’s art incorporates upcycled and repurposed items as well as fibers such as kudzu, bamboo, thistle, and coconut collected from nature. Whether foraging for natural plant fiber or hunting for unconventional items to repurpose, she enjoys every step of the process of converting raw materials to finished art. Her lamps, paper sculpture, and paper paintings are influenced by organic, contemporary, and steampunk styles.
Ann Daniel
Ann Daniel
Clinton, MS
Paper / Sculpture
Guild member since 2003
Ann enjoys the tactile experience of creating artwork from handmade paper. She hopes to share her joy in the paper-making process with the onlooker and push the creative edge of what can be made with paper. Ann’s goal is to look at everyday items and see something that can be created into a piece of art. As her artwork has evolved, she finds herself drawn more to recycling or ‘repurposing’ old cloth. She says of her work, “Combining old and new in unexpected ways gives my work a sense of history and relevance to today’s world.”
