Through the years he has also been awarded many private painting commissions specializing in equestrian and portraiture. At the same time, Michael has also served for 13 years as a firefighter/ EMT in Georgia. Michael's attention to detail since he was young made for a smooth transition into mural work and later decorative faux finishing after studying under Martin Alan Hirsch at Decorative Finishes Studio.

Since then he has invested into this thriving business by completing both Designer Wall Finishes And the extraordinary cutting edge RS series of the Faux Effects line of products.

Michael quotes, "Both the products and skills acquired at Decorative
Finishes Studio are allowing me to pursue creative projects with excitement
and confidence and to become a leader in the field of decorative painting. I
approach my clients with assurance they are receiving the best available
materials, services, and support from myself and from Decorative Finishes
