Michael Robert Pollard
Artist statement
October 2009


What is my art? Collage? Drawing? Painting?

The answer: all of the above

What do I make art about? Life? Family? Politics? Nostalgia? Sports?

The answer: all of the above

Maybe it’s about joy, observations, fears, or dreams,

The answer: all of the above

Things change all the time, the best part of being an artist is the exploration of it all.

The awe shucks moments are pretty cool too.
