Filed under: Art, Painting

Michael Parkes is the world’s leading magical realist painter, sculptor, and stone lithographer. His decades of success as a fine artist stand out in the art world, where less than 1% of artists ever achieve the success in both the primary and secondary markets that Michael has achieved. His works are collected by celebrities, private collectors, and galleries around the world, and his body of work stands for the ages. That being said, Michael continues to create many new works, all of which are widely sought after. Read on for more information about Michael’s exhibition history, style and technique, place in art history, and personal history.
