| About the Artist
Michael Cheek was raised in a small mountain town in North Carolina called
Boone. At an early age he was interested in art. At the age of 24 he
took his first painting class. In 1993 he became a certified instructor
with the Alexander Art Company. Through that came many opportunities
to study with master artists, Brenda Harris, Robert Warren, Buck Paulson, Lowell
Spears, and Este Rayle. He has also studied with Lynn Pittard and
Dorothy Dent. He is now a member of TEAM which is an independent group of
art teachers from all across the country, who specialize in all mediums and
various styles of art. Michael has taught at national conventions and has had projects featured in national magazines such as Paint Works and The Decorative Painters.
Michael has developed his own simple techniques for anyone
who has never painted before to create a painting in one setting. Painting has
truly fulfilled his life and his goal is to help as many people possible realize
if they have a dream, they too can do the same.
Michael currently lives in Taylorsville, North Carolina where
he continues to teach local workshops and classes at his home studio as well as traveling to neighboring towns
and cities to conduct workshops.
