Michael Blessing

The concept for Michael Blessing's Neon West series evolved from combining his love of figure painting with the nostalgic pull of vintage neon signs. The end result is a series of larger-than-life historical characters rendered in a contemporary style. Michael is currently blazing new trails by melding the vibrant color and contrastive light of cutting-edge LED neon technology with historic western characters and romantic western figures. Michael's work has been featured in Art of the West, Western Art & Architecture, Big Sky Journal, cover of Southwest Art Magazine and Western Art Collector.
