PRESENTER: Michael Armstrong
I am an active plein air oil painter and officer with Monterey Bay Plein Air Painters Assoc, and paint primarily on location in oils. I love the breeze in my hair and the salt air in my face and have the imagery of the Central California Coast and Monterey Bay in my blood.
As a Salinas native now residing in Aptos, I prefer the scenery of our little piece of the coast above all others. My second love is the Red Rock country around Sedona-another painter’s paradise.
I try to create works that are lively, with strong design and compositions, good value contrast, effective use of light, color harmony and depth to invite the viewer into the work. I started as a print-maker honing my drawing skills and understanding of shapes, space and form which have served me well as a painter.
