“It Began in Brooklyn”…………………………… A Talk at The Art Institute of California

February 10, 2011 on 5:03 pm | By | In News | 1 Comment

I’ve been invited by The Art Institute of California–Hollywood to give a talk – it’s coming up on March 4th. Here, culled from the copy of the invite, a description of what I’ll be discussing:

“Michael will delve into his past and share with the audience the primal sources for the sensibilities that drive his art, and how he came to do what he does. With graphic examples Michael will discuss how he discovered that his environment and surroundings while growing up made deep and lasting impressions in his young mind that are still blatantly reflected in the samples of work he’ll be showing from various stages in his career.” Basically, it’s a talk about inspiration, and how we’re all surrounded things that may inspire us, even if we’re not completely aware of them.

This is an open invite to all who are interested. The Art Institute is located at 5250 Lankershim Boulevard in North Hollywood.

After the talk I’ll give away one CD copy of “The Alphabet Soup Font Collection” ($620 value) to one lucky attendee. There’ll also be a WACOM tablet and a one year subscription to Lynda.com ($250 value) given away as well. Bring your calling cards for the raffle!
