Michael has worked in numerous mediums such as clay, plaster, synthetic resins and steel. However stainless steel and bronze are his preferred mediums. Recently his sculptures were selected for, and now feature in the film 'Mao’s Last Dance'.

Michael produces all his own bronzes, overseeing each process from start to finish. His skill with the materials has led him to lend his expertise in bronze casting and patination to many of Sydney’s other well known sculptors.
