Michael John started his interest in art as a child
and young adult with drawing and pen & ink (see:
Drawings).
He later discovered painting (see: Paintings) as
he studied under the great American Landscape
Artist, Ed Kellogg (See: Ed Kellogg).
In the last few years Michael developed his skills
in Air Brush, metal work (see: Sculptures) and
textiles (see: Tie Dye).
Now, because of the overwhelming support of his
family, friends, and peers in the art community
Michael has finally plunged into a career as a
photographer. For the last six years has been
quietly developing his craft and material as a
photographer. With his training as a painter to
guide him, Michael brings to life stunning images
of the natural beauty of his beloved Gulf Coast.
In his first public display of his photograph this
summer Michael unveils for you the richness of
his experience above and below the waters of the
Gulf of Mexico.
Michael also often adds another dimension to his
pictures by including the people, animals, and
stories behind his images.
Michael is a member of the Arts and Design
Society of Okaloosa County (ADSO) and The
DeviantArt Community . Michael has won
several art awards in drawing, painting, and
sculpture over the years and done free lance art
for printers and periodicals (the latest being the
local Audubon Society's news letter) and Michael
has sold his art on-line and through local
galleries.
