An Ohio native, Michael resides in Medina, Oh. Self-taught, he used his skills in drawing, painting, wood working, computer graphics, sculpting and soft metals, he began working as an artist for a major home decor company in 1997, creating 2-d and 3-d prototypes for production until 2019.

Creating art has always been a way of bringing art to the people who appreciate its meaning and value. “As long as I am able, I will create.”  ---- M. J. McNosky
