Michael started watercolor painting at age 13 and has enjoyed it ever since. Michael claims that he started drawing as soon as he could hold a pencil in an effort to compete with his older brother, Dan, and his dad. His dad made a living for several years as a professional artist, blowing glass, so when it came time to homeschool Michael and Dan, their dad became the art teacher. Michael was homeschooled all of the way through school other than a short time in a private school. After graduating from high school, Michael went on to Clark College in his hometown of Vancouver, Washington. At Clark College, Michael took every art class he could fit into his schedule and met several instructors that pushed him in his artwork. He graduated from Clark College in spring of 2001 and still relies on his brother and dad for art instruction and an ever-ready honest critique of his artwork. One of Michael’s favorite things to do is travel and explore all of the amazing things that God created. Many of his paintings are inspired by road trips with his brother, Dan and his friend Adam. The three of them are currently working toward their goal of seeing every National Park in the U.S. and Canada. All artwork © Michael David Sorensen |
