Michael Workman

Michael Workman, his wife Laurel, and their children live in Utah. He received both his BA and completed his MFA from Brigham Young University in 1992. His style is “contemporary traditionalism” as noted by Focus/Santa Fe magazine.

“I think I’m producing something people long for,” he says. “My watchword is beauty. I’m after producing something beautiful. For me it’s a spiritual thing. I see beauty everywhere I look.” He was highly influenced by George Innes who believed that art should evoke emotion in people.Workman’s art has won wide acceptance by collectors, artists and critics. He has been featured in Art-Talk, Southwest Art,and several other publications as well as an invited artist of the Mountain Oyster Club annual show and the Northwest Rendezvous show. Workman finds his creative juices stirred by sunsets, cool gray days, late evenings, vast fields and the simple elegance of animals. Always his work is one of balance of the definite and the abstract. It is the classical and romantic, not in opposition but blending in harmony, that entice the viewer to become part of the pastoral landscape.
