Welcome to schliefkevision.com, the website for Austin based painter Michael Schliefke.  Look around to see his paintings, latest shows, information about painting and drawing classes, and various random thoughts that occupy the mind of an artist making something out of nothing.

Coming up! A solo painting show of 25 new paintings!  ’Accumulation & Interruption’ opens at Austin’s Pump Project on July 13th.  The show will be up through August 3 and will be the culmination of months and months of long hours spent standing in front of an easel.  Mark your calendars and I hope to see you at the opening!

More news: Michael has reunited with Blue Genie Art and has moved his studio inside the walls of East Austin’s hardest working art business.  He’s continuing to teach painting and drawing classes at his new studio.  If you’d like to visit his studio, you can set up an appointment with Michael through email.

Follow along with Michael on facebook – the schliefkevision page has updates from his studio, various newsworthy art stories, and a collection of works that helps inspire him in his own work.
