The Ghosts of Stockman’s Past

The age old tradition of sharing stories around the campfire is what I’ve tried to capture here. Three Stockman and their loyal dog are gathered around the fire to hear tales of a time gone by. I’ve used fiery yellows, ochres, browns and oranges to capture the feeling of the moment. Painted on a stretched Belgian linen canvas and framed with a handmade Australian oak floating timber frame, this piece will bring warmth and intrigue into your home.

Hello everyone, my name is Michael Morgan and I am a passionate artist living with a disability from the Sunshine Coast, Australia.
Art is my passion. My purpose. My everything. It is what gets me through each day and is a real source of motivation in times of need. I am a self-taught artist who is heavily inspired by the impressionist and post-impressionist movement. My journey into art began after being diagnosed with a rare and incurable auto-immune disease. Art became my source of comfort, escapism and companionship. I had found a way of being able to express all my inner emotions onto a canvas in a way that my body was no longer able to due to the debilitating nature of my condition. Art has enabled me a freedom to travel and explore imaginary worlds that bring me immense pleasure in life’s darkest days.
