Who is Michael L. Peters? I've drawn Comics for such publishers as Heavy Metal Magazine, Caliber, Image, and CFD. I create and sell Prints mostly on mythological themes, in pen & ink, watercolor and/or acrylics (originals aren't for sale, as yet). A few years ago, I was hired by Ferris State University to create a series of pen & ink portraits of their former presidents. I've taught drawing and illustration through a local art gallery, though I don't have a degree. What I've learned about drawing and painting, I've learned through my own studies and practice and from following the examples of those I respect.

I accept commissions as time permits.

I've joined myspace , comicspace and facebook. In both myspace and comicspace, I've added a preview gallery of my upcoming series, CRESCENT CITY MAGICK (publisher yet to be determined). Feel free to friend.

Questions or comments are welcome. Feel free to contact me at either the mailing address above, or e-mail me at the "contact me" link, below.
