Michael is a painter mostly known for using acrylic paints on upholstery fabric. A process related to his mother being a furniture upholsterer and being around fabric in his formative years.

Whether he paints a hummingbird or a lighthouse, the pattern of the fabric is always woven into the composition leaving the piece with a sense of whimsy and wonder.
