About the Artwork:
“Los Angeles has been going through a lot of road construction lately, at least in my neck of the woods. Most of it seems unnecessary and against all reason. Hollywood Boulevard, anybody? Sometimes nature does some road work, too. My time in LA is drawing to a close, and I wonder what’s around the bend… hopefully less trees falling.” – Michael Patrick Bailey
About the Artist:
(Artist Bio)
Michael Patrick Bailey was born in Indianapolis and raised in the Miami Valley just south of Dayton, OH. A self-taught painter, his experience as a lifelong sportsman and lover of the outdoors blazed the trail for him to become an award-winning wildlife artist. Michael’s work strives to be more than bucolic landscapes and serene animals, it’s a study in aloneness — hoping to evoke memories of contemplative moments and quiet connection with the viewer, the artist, these creatures, and the places we all call home.
His wildlife and landscape works are featured in many private and public collections and have been shown in New York, Los Angeles, Sacramento, Salem, Cheyenne, Livingston, Honolulu, and beyond. He is an Associate Member of Oil Painters of America, American Impressionist Society, and the Hoosier Art Salon. He always wanted to be a cowboy.
