Hi I’m Michelle, 
a Dutch freelance illustrator!

I create joyful illustrations about the sad and fun side of life. In a picture perfect world, I feel the need to be honest about both sides of life through my illustration work. By doing this in a playful way, I want to give people the opportunity to nuance their feelings, talk about it and perhaps have a laugh about it.

I believe it’s important to acknowledge your feelings, but even more to do something about it instead of dwelling on it!

let's chat!

To get in contact with me for collaboration, sales or just to say hi, you can mail me at: info@michellewagenaar.com
