Michael believes that a true artist creates all kinds of art. Because of this creative foundation he has always utilized various genres to understand the elements and foundations and to expand his creative abilities. For the conventional art market, this is an issue because they can't easily define an artist. Michael overcame that obstacle many years ago by marketing his non-rep and abstracted work under a pseudonym. The select galleries utilized were in on the plan, and loved "sharing" the backstory to their elite customers. As a Master Artist, Michael has utilized the "It's Just Paint" as a studio statement and trademark for many years. With each canvas he asks himself, how can I make this paint interesting? With his non-representational art he steps outside of the figurative armature that relies on a tree looking like a tree and focuses on bringing illumination, movement and drama to the two-dimensional surface.
