About this episode

Michael Weller is a painter based out of the UK known for his quiet and subtle paintings. He focuses on the shifts in color as he observes his subject in natural light. He often works on several paintings simultaneously capturing the arrangement from different angles. Each piece is the product of long and careful study and yet the finished work has a sense of calm and ease to it.
