Michael's Story
graduated in '83, joined the navy as an A-6 bomber mechanic,, and traveled to many foreign lands....korea, diego Garcia, phillipines, Singapore, Hawaii and japan.. oh, and California and Tennessee! After that adventure, I worked construction in Washington state, then came home to Alaska and did the same....In 1989 I decided to become a full time artist/sculptor because that's what I like to do! I've done monumental stone pieces for Japanese people, many political pieces, including the late Governor Walter Hickel, Senator ted Stevens, and the current president of Iceland, Ragnar or something, I don't speak the language!

nspired by his work! I've also done some huge paintings for the Catholic church, mostly Saint Michael slaying Satan.....Michaels foot is on the devils head, which is being burned by flames!!!!! these are inspired by 16th century paintings....I frame those in giant antique gold frames...... Other than being an artist, I live out of Sterling, where we have many,many acres of refuge land to 4 wheel, snowmachine and hike on!!! Theres plenty of giant brown bears here, but haven't had a bad encounter yet! I shoot a bit, and reload ammo, since we can shoot in our yard here! Kinda like Anchorage was in 1969! Theres a huge moose in the yard right now.....soon she'll have a baby or two.....we have lynx, coyotes, bears, and other fuzzy creatures come around all the time, plus the wild bunnies, which I feed rabbit food!!!! My work can be found at Alaska auction company,past auctions . I look forward to hearing from my old classmates....p.s. I'm single!
