"The beauty and intelligence that I find in Michael's art is amplified by the fact that he is completely self-taught. I truly believe that he is producing work that should be exhibited in museums and I do not say that lightly. I am proud to watch him on his journey to become an exceptional artist." - Alan Sonfist
