Hi, I’m Michelle Postma.
BFA Ceramics from University of Georgia, Athens, GA 2013
MFA University of Montana, Missoula, MT 2018 – 2021
Michelle Postma is a ceramic artist, painter, educator, and adventure enthusiast living in Missoula, MT. She received a BFA in ceramics from the University of Georgia and earned an MFA at the University of Montana where she focused on large scale mural-esque paintings and ceramic figures covered in images. She recently completed murals at the Zootown Arts Community Center and in downtown Missoula for the Allez! mural program.
Michelle’s art practice is rooted in cultivating awareness of life’s choices and the filters which shape those choices. She tells stories by translating observations and experiences into animals and symbols who represent individuals and concepts. This personal visual language allows her to reflect and informs how she moves through the world.
