Visual art has been important to me since childhood and I have painted since then, sometimes with long gaps of many, many years. How things “look” has always mattered enormously, and seeing beauty has been a constant quest. Of course I haven’t looked for conventional beauty; not at all. I have craved something else. The beauty I look for exists in a myriad ways, all of which speak in their different voices. Click here to see some examples.

Recently, I have begun to aim specifically to express my work through the modality of painting, in a deliberate effort. I work to transmit the same energy I offer to those I work with, through my paintings. At the same time I aim to penetrate another dimension.

There is much more I could say here - but what I am describing is an experience. You have a chance to find out what I mean if you purchase one or more of the giclee prints I have had specially made of some of my pictures. Look at the paintings yourself. You can see them here.

A special exhibition of my paintings - "The Way I See It" - was held at the JM Gallery in London in November 2023.

I have also begun to sell original framed works. Please contact me if you are interested Michal@MichalLevin.com.

Meantime please look at the giclee prints in my shop.

You can listen to the interview here, introduced by my friend, arts curator of The Autumn Salon, Christos Vayenas:
