Michel Streich studied visual communication with an emphasis on drawing and illustration in his native Germany. After graduating – with a drawn reportage on the Northern Ireland conflict – he moved to London, where he worked as a freelance illustrator for several years. In 2000, he based himself in Sydney, Australia.
Michel's humourous illustrations have appeared in publications such as The Times, the Financial Times, Reader’s Digest, The Sydney Morning Herald, the Australian Financial Review and the Bulletin. As a book illustrator, he has worked for publishing houses such as Harper Collins, Macmillan and Random House.
His clients include Virgin Blue, Qantas, the Royal Mail, Sainsbury’s, The Royal Society of Arts and France Tourism.
Michel has participated in group exhibitions in Germany, London and Sydney, and has exhibited his drawings in several solo shows in Sydney.
