Hello and Welcome! I'm Chel (pronounced "shell", short for "Michele").

I'm a 30-something mixed-media artist & jewelry designer, writer, gardener, art historian, long-distance swimmer, crochet addict, movie watcher, animal lover, and avid reader.

I live in Southwest Florida with my lovely family (my husband Tom and my 7-year-old daughter Grace, as well as three cats, three birds, and an elderly gecko). If you'd like to know more, click here
