Artwork location: Canada
This captivating artwork is a striking example of abstract expressionism, characterized by its rich texture and vivid palette. The canvas is a cacophony of colors, seamlessly blending to create a mesmerizing visual symphony. Layers of paint are applied thickly, yielding a substantial and palpable texture that invites viewers to almost feel the physicality of each brushstroke. The interplay of colors—ranging from deep blues and greens to vibrant reds, oranges, and purples—creates a dynamic sense of movement across the canvas. This piece masterfully utilizes the technique of impasto, where paint is laid on thickly so that sections of the painting stand out in relief. This not only adds to the visual intrigue but also manipulates light and shadow in fascinating ways. What sets this artwork apart is its ability to evoke various emotions and interpretations. It is a kaleidoscope of visual sensations, where each glance might reveal something previously unnoticed. The viewer's eye is effortlessly guided through the chaotic yet harmonious composition, uncovering hidden depths and stories within the swirls and splashes of color. This piece does not adhere to a conventional theme, allowing for a boundless array of personal interpretations. Its abstract nature encourages an immersive experience, where every viewer's journey through the painting is uniquely theirs. The artwork stands as a testament to the power of color and form in abstract art, celebrating both the complexity and simplicity of visual expression.

Presentation
Born just outside of Toronto, Ontario, like many young Canadians, Michael Wills grew up with a hockey stick in his hands. For over 20 years, Michael put his passion and energy into playing pro hockey but little did he know, an entirely different skill would become a driving force in his life. Soon, the hockey stick would be replaced with an artist's brush.
Every piece that Michael creates is the product of an intense release of emotional energy. His passion and creativity are expressed in a kaleidoscope of colours as he glides across each canvas with a pallet knife, giving his work a rough, energetic feel, that many have referred to as “masculine" in style. Michael's inspiration comes from the energy and movement of the city, which he feels is best captured in the city lights.
Michael was represented by Zenith Art and Fashion in Miami, Florida, with his work featured during the Miami Art Week and the Miami Art Basel. Michael also had his paintings showcased in the UP Country Interior Design House and the Spoke Club in Toronto.
In 2020, along with a select group of artists, Michael represented Canada at the ArtCapital salon in Paris and the Pingyao International Art Exhibition.
Michael's talent, passion for art, and dedication to honing artistic skills have earned him recognition and an impressive following all across North America, Europe, and Asia.
