Michael H Wilson
Artist's Biography

I am a self-taught developing artist and have been interested in art, music, history, science and technology since my school days. My earliest paintings were murals and seascapes in water colour.
Career wise, I progressed from production engineering through business administration to becoming an I.T. consultant. But I longed for much creativity in my working life, and so took up photography and digital art. In recent years I returned to physical art, now working with the acrylic and encaustic wax mediums.
My travels and many interests in life often lead to artistic inspiration and new artistic endeavour, which in turn enable me to relax.
I regard myself as a cheerful painter and not only enjoy creativity for myself, but hope other people feel good by my paintings too. Since I took up painting again, my enthusiasm has grown and grown, and now every opportunity is used to work on something new.
In the coming year I am looking forward to sculpting in soft stone and metal; an evolved interest from my engineering days, when I enjoyed making my own tools.
