Michael is constantly sketching and doodling in his notebook; it goes with him everywhere! From these rough sketches he will cut pieces of steel that will form the layers of the art. On these layers he will do a chalk drawing of various shapes. Once perfected the way he likes he will then cut the image by hand with an oxy-acetylene torch or hand-held plasma cutter. This allows him to work detail into the images without worrying about the metal heating up and warping. He then builds out his scenes with combinations of various metals, grinding techniques, painting, etching and tempering. The brilliant colors of greens and blues etc are a self-taught technique of essentially opening the pores of the metal and getting the color to absorb into it. That way the metal will still reflect light and show off the grinding marks.
