Artist Michael Godard grew up in Las Vegas where he has flourished as an artist creating incredible works of art. Godard's more popular series "Don't Drink and Draw" features animated olives and martinis, the art a commentary of our times as well as realistic masterpieces. Although the themes vary, Michael Godard's art changes the face of even the most traditional subjects, creating mood and mystery on canvas, that at times are painted so realistically you feel as though the subjects will reach out and touch you. Michael Godard finds a unique way of unfolding this delicate balance of texture, color, technique, realism, humor and imagination to evoke drama.
