About The Artist
Born in Indiana in 1950, Michael’s artistic path began at an early age when he won a national contest for his drawing of a clown at just eight years old. His love for nature blossomed on family walks through nearby forests, where he gained a deep appreciation for the natural world—a theme that’s evident in every brushstroke of his work. Inspired by artists like Henri Rousseau and the fantasy illustrators of his youth, Fishel's style is a captivating blend of innocence, imagination, and rich detail. He has created iconic works for books, magazines, puzzles, and posters, all while maintaining a dedication to bringing his own unique visions to life.
Known for his rich, fantastical imagery, Fishel has been a celebrated figure in the world of art since the 1970s. From designing posters for Big O alongside icons like Roger Dean to illustrating role-playing books for Dungeons & Dragons, his artistic journey is nothing short of remarkable.
