Michael Breyette

Originally from upstate New York near the Canadian border, a conservative and rural area where being openly gay didn't even seem a possibility. It wasn't until moving away many years later, in the late 1990's, that Michael was able to open up and be the man and the artist that he is today to create warm scenes of hope, joy, lust and at times even whimsy inhabited by an enchanting array of men.

 

These male nudes and gay themed works found an audience, and eventually took him from a postal clerk to a full time artist in 2003. Since then he has sold his originals and limited edition prints to a growing number of admirers around the world.
