Angie Coe is a printmaker and comics artist living in Detroit. She began screen printing during college, teaching herself by making posters for punk bands and political activities using the sun to expose screens. In the 15 years since, she balanced her creative work with a career in community bicycle nonprofits. Professionally she swapped bikes for printmaking when she joined Ocelot Print Shop as an instructor, open studio monitor, and member artist. She is a member of Small Works print studio where she self publishes graphic narratives. Now while raising two young kids, she continues to integrate her artistic practice with building community and putting down lasting roots in Detroit.
