Description
When Pam and Michael met, they formed an immediate bond in their personal lives and artistic imaginations and have been collaborating on their artwork ever since. As in the composition of a song, an idea for a piece is started by one and the notes seem to pour out, resulting in a melody for the eyes.
Michael Knapp began his career as an artist at the age of five, when he attended his first Native American powwow. All spectators were asked to enter the circle to dance, and when the song ended, he could not be persuaded to leave the circle. Michael has been involved with the Native American arts and culture for over thirty-five years now, since the time of that first dance.
Learning the art of beadwork from tribal elders, books, pictures and countless hours of trial and error, Michael has completed many projects over the years. His original, one-of-a-kind pieces have sold to private parties, and have been featured in art galleries and shows.
