Michael Heath

Michael Heath is an artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Michael Heath made detailed drawings in the 1990s, filling paper with precise lines and careful shading. His “Gun workshop” shows workbenches lined with rifles and tools, while “This happy breed” crowds the frame with figures at a crowded table, every face and tool outlined sharply. These works belong to a quiet, unlabelled tradition of hand-drawn realism. Tap “Gun workshop” to zoom in on the bolts and barrels and follow each etched line back to the artist’s hand.
