About The Artwork

I live in the rainshadow of the Olympic Mountain Range in Washington state. The mountains such the clouds up on the west side and wring them of their precipitation so that our are is notable dryer than other areas not snuggled up against the hills. The scenic beauty of this region is highly inspirational in my work. There's natural beauty at every turn. I intend viewers to experience the peace and calm of a gentle rain when imbibing this painting. Life can be difficult - It's important to take time for breathing and relaxing. I choose the combination of watercolor and fine paper to make my work because there is simply no other medium capable of displaying pigment so nakedly. water carries the paint to the paper and evaporates. We have cotton and minerals remaining. I love it.

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.
