Through his art, Micah hopes to share where he finds beauty, life and truth. 

Trained in Florence, he combines classical techniques with a contemporary style, inspired by the impressionists, street art and the Old Masters.

 

"Those closest to me will tell you that I love (often to an annoying degree) sharing things. I always want to share something - whether it's a new song, a photo, or an idea. This is one of the main reasons I make art, as a tool to capture and share with others where I have found something I love.

 

I use drawing and painting as a way to explore the world and express my experiences. I hope my work can capture where I find beauty, truth and life in a way that connects and inspires people.

​

My main mediums are oil painting and charcoal drawing. I use the classical techniques I learned during my time studying the Old Masters in Florence to help me to create each piece. Currently I am based in Oxford and I have a gallery and studio there called ‘Jungle’, which I co-run with a local charity to run events and workshops for the surrounding community.

 

Right now I am illustrating a book on the Psalms which is a follow up from the book ‘Unveiled’ written by my mother Clare Hayns.

 

If you have any questions, are interested in a commission or to own one of my originals, please send me a message."
