Michelle Alexis Newman is a photographer and mixed media artist based in Los Angeles.

A combination of blog and portfolio, Michelle’s site is a comprehensive showcase of where to find her online as well as giving you a glimpse into her style. There a links to a few of her projects, such as photographic series The North wind blew South (see example above) and Screams (which need little explanation once you’ve browsed the images). We particularly liked Michelle’s ‘Open Mic‘ portraits of comedians and their best/worst joke (see below).
