Mike Kendall -- Off The Wall

As part of its 30th anniversary celebration, Arts Benicia will honor Mike Kendall, one of its first exhibiting artists, with a one man show during Benicia Artists Open Studios. Kendall’s paintings and sculptures will be on view in the Arts Benicia gallery April 8 - May 7, 2017. Inspired by the work of Hieronymous Bosch, H.R. Giger and surrealist artists, Kendall’s artwork ranges from mixed media metal sculptures to large scale paintings. Commenting about his artistic approach, Mike states, “I enjoy creating works that demand the viewer's attention, through bold statements, contradiction, illusion or moving beyond the visual senses.”
