Artist Michael Michaud was born in Cleveland, Ohio
and raised in Westport, Connecticut. He now resides
in Fairfield, Connecticut with his wife Tricia.
Starting as an apprentice mold cutter in 1973,
Michael soon became a master precious metal caster
and mold maker. In 1976, seeking even more
knowledge, Michael moved on to the Rochester
Institute of Technology's prestigious School for
American Craftsmen.
While studying under esteemed designers Hans
Christenson and Gary Griffin, he mastered many of
the techniques he uses today to capture the beauty
and exquisite detail of nature in metal. Combining
his love of nature and exceptional knowledge of
precious metal casting and model making, Michael has
created wonderful tabletop and giftware items. His
exquisite use of layering colors of gold, silver and
copper on bronze and pewter, give the Table Art
collection an elegant and unique look all its own.
Natures creations are the ultimate Art that fills
our hearts with joy, warms our souls with promise
and fuels our spirits with desire. My true
inspiration to reflect this beauty is what my Art is
all about.
