Best known by the ProgStock crowd as the organizer of ProgDay, Michael Bennett is also a fine artist, graphic artist, and album cover artist.
Beginning with illustration work for magazines, posters, calendars and books, a shift in direction led Michael to essentially abandon painting and drawing for almost 15 years. In the mid 1990s, Ken Golden of The Laser’s Edge Group saw Michael’s previous work and asked him to create the art for Il Trono Dei Ricordi’s self-titled release. Since then, Michael has established an international reputation as an artist for his surrealistic and expressionistic work, particularly within the music industry. You may have seen his paintings on releases by Wobbler, Cast, A Triggering Myth, Nathan Mahl, Ethos, Ozone Quartet, and many others, his masthead for Progression Magazine, or his art for events like ProgDay and Cruise To The Edge.
Michael exhibits from time to time and has been interviewed by numerous publications. He will be bringing his artwork to back to us at ProgStock 2024!
