My name is Michelle Truman, but you can call me Chelle. You can also call me Maia Gadwall.

In my personal life, I am married to my best friend—my stag and my rock. I'm a mother to a fabulous kiddo who is becoming an incredible young adult and two tomcats who identify as a dog and a diva.

 

We live in a small and quiet rural town in Missouri. I have many hobbies besides art and activism, including outdoorsmanship, cooking, gaming, and reading.

​​

I'm active in many communities (including BDSM, ENM, and LGBTQ+), in art and writing circles, and supporting a general strike. I believe in integrity, diversity, equity, and a global sociocracy.

Professionally, I dabble in a little of everything, often referring to myself as a Jill-of-all-Trades and a general maker and fixer of things. Primarily, I am an artist, and I am currently taking commission requests.
