Michael ist ein Autor, dessen reich illustrierte Bücher aus seinen ausgedehnten Reisen durch verschiedene Landschaften weltweit entstehen. Sein künstlerischer Prozess wurzelt tief in der Entdeckung der einzigartigen „Kunst“ verschiedener Umgebungen, die er durch scharfe Beobachtung und aufmerksames Zuhören erforscht. Er taucht in Orte ein und bemüht sich, unsichtbar zu bleiben, um deren authentische Essenz einzufangen und diese Erkenntnisse in seine Arbeit zu integrieren. Diese Hingabe ermöglicht es seinen Illustrationen, Welten und Erzählungen mit einer einzigartigen visuellen Tiefe zum Leben zu erwecken.
