“Like many Australians, I grew up in an era when summer holidays were long, hot and languorous. My senses still tingle at the smell of wood smoke from the BBQ, burning asphalt, eucalyptus and chlorine. Days moved slowly at the local pool and on the many beaches stretching down the bay to the peninsula. Although these days I live in country Victoria, I often revisit the beaches I loved as a kid and this painting of Half Moon Bay is a celebration of the beach and the gentler rhythms of holidays.”

As a painter, printmaker and lion-tamer Michael draws inspiration from the landscape around his home on Djaara country in Castlemaine, Victoria. He has exhibited widely in Australia and internationally and his work is included in public, corporate and private collections.
