Michele Light is a furry artist. Born a citizen of the Philippines, she took her oath of U.S. citizenship at the age of four. She resides in San Diego, California, U.S.A., with her husband Eric Light. Michele Light attended The Art Institute of Seattle, which she graduated from in 1990. After receiving her art degree she migrated to the San Diego area, where she worked on the Attack of the Killer Tomatoes animated TV show. Her “friend and mentor” Terrie Smith introduced Michele to the furry fandom, and Michele began drawing furry images in late 1992. She already had “a large fan following” by 1994. Her artwork was published in The American Journal of Anthropomorphics issues 2 and 4, and is on both the front and back covers of the latter. She was involved with Katmandu issues 1, 2, 4, and 11.
Michele states that “My work has a definite Anime slant to it, with big eyes and wild hair. Most people would describe my art by saying “Oh, it’s sooo CUTE!”
