Cheryl’s Work
Cheryl Michie’s work delves into the profound intersections of grief, loss, family, and the quiet beauty found in domestic spaces and nature.
Background
Rooted in the Midwest, her creative process is deeply influenced by the landscapes and rhythms of Wisconsin, Southern Indiana, and Iowa, where she spends much of her time.
Through both writing and painting, Cheryl captures the fragility and resilience of human experiences, using memory and personal reflection to create pieces that invite viewers to engage in their own narratives of loss and recovery.
Her stories explore the seemingly mundane moments of life, offering windows into the complexities of love, memory, and healing.
Cheryl also cherishes the moments spent with friends and family, often camping, cooking, and traveling across the Midwest to visit her grandchildren.
Cheryl is pursuing her MFA in Creative Writing at Maharishi International University in Fairfield, Iowa
These personal experiences of gathering, connection, and reflection are at the heart of her creative practice, which invites her audience to pause, reflect, and find meaning in the moments that often go unnoticed.
