Hello, I'm Mike Zehnder.

Making is my happy place. Whether I am putting paint to canvas or building assembled characters from found objects, I am driven by the joy of creation. I look for my "Aha!" moment at the vibrant crossroads of intentional design and free artistic expression. I strive to make my work strong and well-crafted, yet leave it a bit unsolved so it can be adapted in the mind of the viewer.
