This website is the culmination of a process that started several years ago when I started graphite drawing. Over the next several years I amassed a large portfolio of drawings consisting mainly of western art consistent with our equestrian lifestyle. Quarter Horses had been a major part of our life, Sally and me, for forty plus years. In a desire to put these drawings together in one place Shutterfly gave me the means to create my first book, Michael Draws. Pleased with how it turned out I thought it might be interesting to create a book consisting of the work, Architecture, which had been my professional career. Thus Michael Works. That was fun but why stop there? Michael Plays consists of all the, mostly, endeavors that were a part of my life from a very early age. I hope you find this trilogy interesting.
