ABOUT ME

Michael is inspired by discovered landscapes, encountered people, and personal experiences responding to subjects in a dynamic and expressive manner. Michael explores human experiences and how classic story models symbolically parallel in our own life. Utilizing mixed media painting and drawing Michael provides us with a variety of Abstract landscape scenes that create a visual story to illustrate a variety of scenarios played out on the world's stage.

Having completed a BA in Fine Arts (Design) at UNSW & Design in Sydney, Australia, Michael has been featured in both solo and group exhibitions. He is passionate about Public art and has done a number of large scale public works. 

Michael creates in collaboration with architects, interior designers, stylists, property developers, retailers, and galleries, bringing his work into a variety of spaces. He places a strong emphasis on the viewer and experiments with everyday objects, spaces, people, and places, often altering the meaning and aesthetics of these forms.

Through his practice, Michael aims to bring others into a greater sense of fulfilment and purpose in their own lives.



 

TESTIMONIALS / REFERENCES

 

Michael created an amazing mural on the entire entrance side of our building. It is a very large and impressive piece that has been pleasing and positively influential to our space. It was incredibly easy to agree with a design of his style and exciting to see the work progress. We would hope to have him do work for us again.

Michael designed and painted a mural on my walls in my speech pathology clinic for children and parents. From the start to the completed mural, the process was seamless and highly professional. Thanks so much for bringing our vision to life and inspiring us with your art Mike. I cannot recommend Michael and his art enough!
