Meet The Artist
Mike Margolis — a painter with a heart full of color and a soul rooted in connection. Born in Philadelphia and now thriving in Phoenix, Mike doesn’t just create art; he tells stories through bold shapes, joyful palettes, and a touch of whimsy that invites you in. His paintings echo a life rich in friendship, laughter, and the little moments that matter most. But for Mike, the magic of art doesn’t end with the final brushstroke — it begins with the people who see it. He’s eager to meet you, to hear your unique story, and to share in the beautiful exchange that happens when art brings us together. This isn’t just art — it’s a heartfelt conversation, waiting to begin.

“My Art Is Different—Because It’s Meant to Connect With You.”
“Every piece I paint is a conversation—your space, your story, brought to life.”
Colorful Imagination
My canvas is a playground of hues-bold, vibrant, and unapologetically alive. My work dances with energy, inviting viewers to explore their own emotions and memories.
Design-driven Creativity
Each piece is meticulously crafted, and guided by design principles, shapes intersect, colors collide, and movement flows - A symphony of visual storytelling.
Endless Conversation
Imagine hosting a soirée in your home, surrounded by my art. Guests lean in, captivated by the interplay of light and shadow, the rhythm of abstract forms. They ask questions, share interpretations, and connect over shared wonder.
Joy and Inspiration
Owning a Mike Margolis original is like having a secret treasure - a burst of joy waiting to be discovered each day. It's a reminder that life is richer when embrace creativity.
