“Michelson’s use of the medium is unfettered by any theory or practice other than his own, thus reflecting the nature of contemporary art practices. However, in his urge to push the watercolor medium to its physical limits to create a work of extraordinary visual impact, Michelson helps to perpetuate the tradition of the exhibition watercolor in America.”
