Born February 2, 1951. From the age of four the author has produced a lifetime of drawing and painting. Using the mind's eye for the majority of works the author has created and sold professionally since 1976. Study includes two years of architectural and mechanical drawing, one year of geometrical and technical design, three years of fine art study, five years of commercial design study and 41 years of painting and drawing. Creating virtually every aspect of two dimensional conceptual artwork.With a lifetime of art the author has compiled an extensive amount of experience: Fine art, commercial art, illustrations, landscapes, sci-fi and fantasy art, some portraits, carvings and designing; along with a wealth of background knowledge, training, schooling and experimenting with techniques. Michael’s favorite style of art is producing images with a surreal/visionary/fantasy style, which results in a perception from an initial abstract sketch. Growing up on 300 acres and having even more state land to explore, Michael’s imagination was able to envision worlds and situations on a dreamlike level. Dreams of flight and fancy. Situations impossible in the every day world of physical restraints. Accused of being a daydreamer as a child, Michael has taken that pastime and turned it into artistic visions of wonderment and fascination. Unparalleled for his originality and unique ideas, Michael continues to create daily, with more ideas in his head then he could ever get down on canvas or paper. His four books on visualized artwork are a testament to that aspect. Currently Michael is doing visionary surrealism paintings for galleries and reproductions. His gallery review page on his website (michaelcsontos.com) shows the recent works.Read more about this authorRead less about this author
