You’re not too late. You’re right on time.

Coastal Flow Creative is my working glass studio where I create, teach, design tools, and host immersive art experiences — both in person and online.

Hi, I'm Michelle

Coastal Flow Creative is more than a studio — it’s the next version of a life I’ve been building for a long time.

At 55, I’m not retiring — I’m restructuring. Letting go of the things that no longer fit, and pouring my energy into what does: art, creativity, community, collaboration, and nourishment — the kind that fills both the plate and the spirit.

This space is part gallery, part classroom, part kitchen-table conversation. It’s where I make my work, teach others, host workshops, and bring people together making things that matter.

You’ll find Coastal Flow Creative in a beautiful heritage home in Port Alberni, tucked just off the main road — not far from the water, and usually soundtracked by a solid 80s one-hit wonder playlist.

Whether you’re here to shop, take a class, or just reconnect with something you’ve been missing — you’re in the right place.
