Michael Provenza

Michael Provenza is a contemporary landscape oil painter who has developed a distinctive pointillistic style and blending technique that exudes a realistic and dimensional quality, yet is surreal and magical.   He has a totally original perception of nature and landscape. Provenza’s oil paintings reveal a successful blend of the old with the new – merging a realistic and remarkable dimensional quality with a surreal and magical environment – in a truly distinctive pointillistic style.

“Viewers of my work say they can walk right into my paintings – and they want to be there.  I hope to give the viewer the feeling of entering a place that is happy and peaceful -- full of enchantment and color. They can explore it and make it their own.  Just follow the path.”

Born and raised in the San Francisco Bay area, Provenza has lived, worked, studied, taught, and painted for more than 30 years. Inspired by his artist grandfather, Provenza earned a Fine Art degree and has become a highly  recognized and collectible artist both nationally and internationally. All of Provenza’s work invites you to experience Life’s Journey – with a twist.
