Visit at Michèle Meister - visual artist during Nillumbik Artists Open Studios

Today's Artist Spotlight is on another incredible addition to our 2026 Program - painter and illustrator, Michèle Meister - visual artist.art!

Michèle's practice moves fluidly between painting, sketchbooks, books, and textiles - across both traditional and digital methods of creation.

Having grown up between Switzerland and Germany, and lived for many years in Greece, Michèle work is shaped by layered cultural experiences.

For Michèle, painting sits at the centre of her practice as vital form of human expression.
Her work, often figurative without being naturalistic, focusing on emotion, memory, mythology, and lived experience.

-
If you want to hear and see more of Michele's work, you'll be able to visit her studio in North Warrandyte this Spring!
- WEEKEND 1: Sat 14 + Sun 15 November
- WEEKEND 2: Sat 21 + Sun 22 November

Had a little breather away from my desk today. Hit the to do’s in a much better frame of mind.

Relax in the Hurstbridge Region. 🧡 There’s always a gift of some serenity on the Diamond Creek Trail.

These gorgeous horses were grazing towards the Hurstbridge end and quite close@to a smorgasbord of cafes and lovely shops. 🧡

Running creek, gorgeous ducks and cockatoos were ticking all the peace and harmony boxes today.

Enter from Greysharps Road, Hurstbridge or from Wattle Glen football ground for this stretch of the trail….

….it’s a beautiful experience the whole way to Eltham and beyond.
