Biography/Statement
|
Michael Bowen Baltimore person I am a painter. I love to paint stories. I love stories. All kinds. But mostly absurd or darkly nostalgic themed stories. I am self taught in a basement. I sit on the edge of a bed. Hunched over. My chair is an easel. It’s lumpy with dried paint. My phone plays music while I work. If I get blocked I roll over onto the bed and lay there. Sometimes i drift into a light sleep and picture the solution snd quickly sit up and paint it. Sometimes I just fall asleep. This is my first gallery show. The end is coming Born 1966 Death TBD |
