Painter, carpenter, printmaker, musician, filmaker, what the Hell? This perenially scruffy North Carolinian specializes in the Surreal Twang of Backcountry Detritus, and can draw the pants off a baboon, a jalopy, a Grandma, and maybe two other things. Recent projects include a series of fake advertisement paintings, painted shoji screens, and directing a short film about a printmaking heretic known only as "Chuck". Mike mostly draws in front of the TV.
