About Michael Loweth:

I am inspired by angels and the stone carvings in Greenwood Cemetery, Brooklyn.


I was helping someone dispose of an old wooden dresser when I decided to remove the top and start to make marks in the wood.  With a hammer and an array of small screwdrivers (the kind used for eyeglass repair) I started chiseling.  My "first carving" was a random doodling that, much to my surprise, looked fairly decent. I felt inspired and got a bigger piece of wood for my second try.  It was then that I began my wood reliefs.  I was thirteen years old at the time.

One of my favorites.

Medieval Myths and Fantasy are predominant themes in my work.

 


 

 

Since my boyhood I've found solitude and inspiration in Greenwood Cemetry, one of the world's treasures, right next to where I roamed in Brooklyn, NY.
