Michael McKee: Painting with the Earth
My current work reflects a love for the medium of soft pastels, and an appreciation of the balance between “color, expression and technique”. There is a connected energy I feel with this medium that I get from no others, and the fine grain of pigment in my hands feels as if I am painting with the earth itself.

This connection through bold expressions of color and shape, give every stroke of my pastels purpose, bringing each piece to life. My landscape and still life impressions are inspired from simple memories of moments and places, and are all created with a spirit of joy.

My hope as an artist is simple… that my work will leave a warm, colorful impression on your soul and in your heart.

Micheal McKee will exhibiting work in our Art Alfresco exhibition during May and June.
