Michael Vorwerk

Michael Vorwerk uses acrylic paints, pencils, watercolors, and colored pencils, and as a self-taught artist, he incorporates his rich background in drawing and photography into his work. His painting style is detailed and realistic, drawing inspiration from classical and modern masters such as Caspar David Friedrich and Michael J. Smith. He uses three-dimensional effects to depict natural and coastal landscapes in which humans appear small – always imbued with a deep reverence and connection to nature that lends his paintings a quiet, contemplative power.
