ABOUT THE ARTWORK
This painting is part of an ongoing series I call "Shields". These are improvised paintings which I start with no sketching or plan in mind. I get to watch the composition unfold - which is one of my favorite aspects of painting. I don't know what any given piece will look like at the beginning. Slowly as the piece is "built" I may start "carrying" the piece in a certain direction. In this piece, I noticed a figure begin to emerge toward the very end of the process of painting. My intention with this work (and many of my works) is to share my personal vision of unity or oneness. In this specific piece, I want people to feel a sense of mystery and ponder exactly how these shapes relate to the title. I generally arrive at titles by simply looking at the piece after completion, and waiting for some words to bubble up. In this case, The Last Man. This piece is mostly inspired by my love of architecture. I am also always enthused by the transparency of overlapping leaves on trees. Feel free and contact me if you want to know more - .

Mike Biskup
United States
MIKE BISKUP is a contemporary watercolor painter, musician, and caretaker of The Green Way in Gardiner, WA on Washington State's verdant Olympic Peninsula. Born in 1970 in Los Angeles, he spent his youngest years voraciously drawing quirky characters, complex contraptions and way out worlds with his two older brothers. Artwork flowed onto all of his papers at school bringing accolades from most of his teachers. At UC Santa Cruz, he swam in a richly blended stream of artistic freedom, Zen Buddhism and Native American spiritual consciousness while earning a degree in Fine Art. After school, Mike spent two decades homeschooling three intrepid children in the wilds of Port Townsend. Nest emptied, he embraced his role as a bringer of visions in the Artist/Shaman tradition elucidated profoundly by Joseph Campbell. At age 50, a powerful mystical experience shed new light on Everything… His paintings can be found in collections worldwide, notably that of Oscar-winning actress Patricia Arquette and Facebook Inc.
