Godard has appeared on MTV,
ABC, NBC,
OCN, KOCE, KCET, Evening Magazine, Discovery Channel, along with radio
and magazine interviews and over a dozen art shows. His work is
collected by celebrities, private collectors, and can be found in
numerous selected art galleries, homes and businesses throughout the US.
He was the first artist commissioned in California to paint a
life-size-cow, part of the New York
and Chicago "Cows on Parade" which has appeared on the Today Show, Oprah
and many media formats.
Godard has known since
childhood that it is paint that flows thru his veins. Michael
attended the
University of Nevada in as Vegas with a Fine Arts major and later
attended Art
Center College of Design in Pasadena. After college he began work
as a freelance illustrator with such clients as Coca Cola, Dodge, Sax
Fifth Avenue, and a dozen other well
known corporations.
Although the themes vary,
Godard's
Art changes the face of even the most traditional subjects, creating
mood and mystery on canvas, at times painted so realistically, you feel
as though the subjects will reach out and touch you. Godard finds
unique ways of unfolding this delicate balance of texture, color,
technique, realism, humor, and imagination to evoke drama and emotion.
No matter what the subject, from crocodiles cruising convertibles to
children blowing bubbles at the beach, one thing gallery owners and the
public agree on, "Michael Godard's paintings are incredible."
