Michael Dowling is an internationally collected artist residing in Colorado. I draw and paint on paper and canvas. I approach my work in a visual sense from a classical side. I am interested in the strength of the visual aspects of art from previous times and how and why that look can have impact in our time. I approach my work with elements of the classical and the techniques learned while studying in Italy. That historical approach gives my work a look of the historical blended with subject matter of the hypermodern.
