Over the past 27 years, Michael Dudash has completed over 1,250 oil paintings and assignments for clients worldwide. His earlier illustration career focused on creating artwork for the movie industry, advertisers, publishers, books, magazines, design firms, corporations and institutions such as the United Nations and the U.S. Postal Service. Those pieces have won him a national reputation and numerous awards from the Society of Illustrators (NYC & LA), the Society of Publication Designers, Communications Arts and HOW Magazine. Several years ago Michael turned his talents to illustrating Biblical themes and the results were stunning. Michael has written and published articles for American Artist, the Artists Magazine and Step-by-Step Graphics. He has featured his work as a guest lecturer at the Booth Western Art Museum & Washington University. In recent years, Michael has turned his efforts almost exclusively to the sale of his original oil paintings and limited edition prints. He has begun to branch out internationally with his work and has found the same success abroad as he has enjoyed here at home. Michael works out of his home and studio in Vermont.
