Michael G. Wilson

Michael is best known for painting large, meticulous landscapes and message driven collages in oil.  Highly stylized technical portraits illuminate his love for nature and animals and his penchant for commentating on current social political realities.  

Case studies on the human experience, his paintings contrast todays tendency towards aesthetically driven artwork.  His designs reflect an appreciation for the ancient masters; Technically executed and message driven, Michael pays homage to the renaissance, expressionism, while tipping his hat to both surrealism and pop art.  His uniquely styled, highly suggestive collages evoke emotional responses and inspires the viewer to delve deeper into the human psyche, in search of understanding.  

​

"I try to create paintings that are more than just surface level or aesthetically pleasing, something that challenges the viewer to consider a deeper meaning, tell a story, perhaps provoke a serious discussion while remaining visually engaging.”
