Michelle Sawyer is a visual artist from Tampa, FL. She earned her degree in Fine Arts from the University of South Florida and became a multifaceted artist. Sawyer has worked as a painter, muralist, curator and educator. Her large-scale works, which range from commercial to historical to community-centered projects, can be seen throughout the Tampa Bay Area. Examples of such projects include the Tampa Heights mural at Cafe Hey created to raise awareness of interstate expansion in a historic neighborhood, the Dream Pushers mural located on the Dream Center in Ybor City, the West Tampa Community Mural at Salcines Park, the For the Love of THIS City mural at The Portico, the Riverwalk Memories mural at Anchor Riverwalk, the Tampa Height Mural at Shuffle, and the TPA Mural at Westshore City Center, among many others.

While the aforementioned projects were co-designed and co-painted as a duo, as of 2022 Sawyer re-emerged as a solo-artist. The 1937 Antifascist Women's March in Ybor City as well as displays for the Skatepark of Tampa's 30th anniversary showcase Sawyer's vision as an independent artist who blends community and history through public art. Sawyer's experience as a gallery co-founder has allowed her to assist local businesses in integrating art into their establishments. At present, Sawyer is the Art Events Coordinator at The Bricks in Ybor City.
