About

Eraser Shavings is the artistic collaboration formed by Sage Skillman and Michelle Vizcarra. Sage and Michelle met when Michelle started working part time as Sage’s nanny. They first wrote songs together, then moved into collaborations on cartoons and books. Their first graphic novella, INVISIBLE ELLY, was completed and published in January of 2020. Michelle also writes, records and performs music with her band, Pardon Me Sir. Sage has loved to draw and create books ever since she was 3 years old. Their shared worked is marked by a sly and humorous style, often self referential and winking at the audience. They are ever evolving, both life long learners who incorporate new influences into their work whenever they encounter it and it moves them. Michelle lives with her girlfriend Linda Herrera and their cat Lucas. Sage lives with her parents, 2 dogs, 2 cats, 1 Venus flytrap and currently her baby foster brother, in Santa Monica, CA. Many afternoons Michelle and Sage can be found creating new work at Sage’s family dining room table.
