Michael continues to explore a broad range of techniques, mediums and materials in his practice including weekly life drawing, life sculpting, painting (oils, acrylic, watercolour, gouache, encaustic), drawing (charcoal, graphite, pencil, oil stick), photography, film, woodwork, metal work, computerised elements (sensors, controllers), ceramics and sculpture (all mediums). He selects regular exercises to develop and hone his technical skills and to solve problems he may be facing within his Project artworks. These 'process' pieces often end up on his YouTube channel and are usually for Sale within his online Art Shop but generally are not exhibited.
