"ROLLINS COLLEGE"

The following letter is from Rollins College Art
Professor,
Thomas Peterson:
"It has been a number of years since I knew Mike as
a young student at Rollins college. I recall him
clearly, however, and remember him especially as a
student whose artistic interests were focused on
portrait work. His early interest and ability in
portraiture was such that it comes as no surprise to
me that he has gone on to establish himself as a
professional portrait artist.
He appears to have developed a distinctive style in
this genre of art in the years since he left Rollins, and
produced an impressive body of work. I know he is
deeply committed to his work with the human figure,
and I wish him well and offer my encouragement as
he seeks to deepen and expand his abilities in this
challenging mode of expression."
