Cartoonist and graphic designer. Obsessed with sewing, knitting, bright colors, bold prints and vintage styles. I live with my cartoonist husband Masheka and our toddler Z. I used to draw a lot of political cartoons (see below) but these days I mostly blog about sewing and knitting.

"With America's most treasured values under relentless assault, Mikhaela Reid's cartoons keep the barricades bearable."
