About the Artist

Michael Barfield has spent his life learning to paint, draw, write, and play music. To support these habits he's worked all kinds of crazy jobs, from detassling corn (not recommended as a job choice for those over 30), to playing dishwasher for toxin-stained labware, to producing and engineering albums for a pop rock band, to interviewing behind-the-scenes movers and shakers working on high-profile video games, blockbuster films, and Grammy-winning albums. If you want a good dose of his creative work and credits, go to his portfolio website at www.michaelbarfield.
