  • This guy plagiarizes all of his ideas! Look at Terry Turrel, Matt Sesow, Gabriel Shaffer, Terry Cannon and Athlone Clarke, you will see where hes getting his art from.He is an industry created artist, Marcia Weber, a prominent folk art dealer, manufactured him from the beginning, to fit a certain mold.Anyone who has seen his early works knows this to be true. Sorry to bust the bubble, but the truth is still the truth. Hes lying to everyone.

  • intuitu2, Sorry to bust your bubble, but I was one of Michaels art teachers in high school. His figures are still distorted in the same way they were then. He always had a natural way with color.

  • Exceptional work! Michael, thanks so much for sharing your gift with us.

  • This is fake. There are no black people in Alabama.

    FAKE AND GAY!!!!!111!!!!

  • @Intuitu2 still not really, bitch

  • Why did you leave michael :( you were my only real friend back then....i cried for so long when you left...my mother is getting those paintings of you from that fat bastard doug....

  • Thats my uncle :) he is very talented!

  • Micael is controversal in his art, not his originality. All great artist plagerize nature, humanity, other artist. The difference in an artist and a great artist is originality in style. Unmistakingly, Michael Banks is a great artist and should be encouraged to share his talent with the world, today.
