Retrospective from 2018. Themes include health and wellbeing, climate change and reconnecting with the natural world. Early work is largely structured, later work is more spontaneous and organic. An eclectic mix of creative processes and styles.
About
Initially beginning his creative calling during 2018 after being diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease, Michael is a self-taught artist. Michael has had a lifelong fascination in abstract art, though it was not until a period of illness prompted him to explore it as a form of therapy where he picked up the tools and started creating.
Inspiration has been drawn from a number of subjects - global issues such as climate change as well as mood, health and wellbeing and a desire to reconnect with the natural world.
The art featured in this showcase have never been displayed as a collection, so there will be something fresh to explore.
