About Anne Michelsen
A
nne Michelsen was born with a crayon clenched in her fist. As soon as her mother found it, she snatched it away - and replaced it with charcoal pencils, kneaded erasers, good quality paintbrushes and watercolors in tubes. Anne spent the next 18 years putting them to good use, sketching and painting the natural world around her - especiallly horses. Her mother had to put up first with cave paintings on the walls, and then with unicorns painted on the fridge. Her mother was a good sport. When Anne grew up, she went to St. Olaf College, where she - naturally - majored in art. After graduating, she exhibted her watercolor and oil paintings and won awards both regionally in the Upper Midwest and nationally. Somewhere along the way Anne also learned to write. Today she works as a freelance copywriter, designer and illustrator, specializing in working with companies and nonprofits involved in building a more sustainable world.
