Michael Van Zeyl, 1969 | Portrait / Magic Realism painter


For Michael Van Zeyl, portraiture is much more than a one-sided translation of the artist’s point of view taking form in a subject. It’s an engaging visual dialogue that renders a soul in light, shadow and pigment, continuing the conversation for future generations to appreciate.
While technical skill and accurate rendering are only part of Michael’s gift, his experience has honed his craft to the highest standard.
