Michael Goettee


After years of work as a graphic designer and magazine art director, I've chosen to seek full-time fine art pursuits. Although I've been in galleries off and on since the 80's, I've never had the time to devote myself to my first love, Painting. Now I've asked her to marry me.

A lover of the American Southwest I've been drawn to the imagery of the landscape and the varied cultures for most of my work, but still step out of that when a whim calls for me to create something else. When choosing to portray the beautiful western skies and landscapes, I take a more serious tone, almost feeling that the call to paint that is almost sacred. But other subjects allow me to enjoy my humorous take on the wild west.
