Mike Ross
Mike Ross is an artist, muralist and curator, working out of 333 Midland Studios and the Annex Gallery since 2014. His work is full of gradient pattern and color suggesting structure coexisting with chaos. He cites the classical Indian musical form of the Raga as an inspiration, with its defined framework and interior improvisation that speaks simultaneously to the present moment and the eternal.
Ross graduated from Oakland University in 2003, majoring in Anthropology with a minor in Studio Art.
