Michael Gromm

Michael Gromm paints super-real figures that appear surprisingly at home within surreal environments.

‘Some people drive cars. Some people count numbers. But I like to paint,' says Michael Gromm. 'I like to think we are all abstractionists, that our approach to our environment is to change it to fit our needs'.
