Michael Yates is a painter. Colour dominates Michael’s works whether it be Acrylic or Oil on Canvas or bright primaries on metal – the colour jumps out at you. The colours welcome you and draw you in.

Generally Michael tends to work quickly not letting his thoughts get too much in the way of his emotional input. With a motto “variety is the spice of life”, this is reflected in a diverse range of subjects & styles.

Born in Sydney, Michael started drawing in primary school with coloured pencils – jaguars, horses, planes & cars. With over 35 years in business & travelling overseas to diverse countries, he has many fantastic visions & memories to work from with in his artworks.

“Painting is like moving meditation – it can take you to a place of peace and quiet”.

Michael exhibits regularly in galleries and shows in Sydney.
