Artwork #3 “Untitled” 14”x14, Ink and Pencil on Canvas, by Michael Gaugler 2021

Utilizing both sides of the canvas, on the front, we can see Michael’s passion towards being the one and only original person that he is, his existence in this world, the mark of the artist and the only thing that a person can have - which is the imprint of his identity. The hand that only each and every one of us holds, and as each and every one of our individualities uniqueness, and all that it encompasses - both sad and happy. On the back side we can see how he expresses “nothing is nothing” and how important every thing, every-little-thing is actually something.

In this piece we can see how Michael expresses his love that will always be, his love that is endless and for all, no matter how painful and sad it may be at times, he expresses the beauty of the uniqueness and originality that he has, the love, and the happy side as well.
