Artist Statement
Speaking of his work Michael says "My work typically begins with a trip to the metal yard. There, among the industrial detritus, I gather my palette, much as a painter chooses their paints. My work arises from my experiences and things I love - jazz, space, nature, mankind, and beauty in all its manifestations. The Japanese aesthetic of wabi-sabi, beauty in the imperfect and the natural time-worn patina, also resonates in my art."
