Information about Michael McCarthy provided by artist Robin John Anderson.

I met Michael McCarthy in the early 1980's.  He had shown up at my studio for a life-drawing session.  I used to hire a model and then share the session with as many artists as would come.  David had arrived with his notebook.  I remember that he . . . had a mop of curly blond hair.  With a name like McCarthy, he would be an Irishman.  His manner was broad; expansive and affable.

We met briefly downstairs before the session so we had a few minutes to talk. He reluctantly showed his notebook to me.  In that notebook, I found a very facile drawing of a rock outcropping.  It was a slick drawing which surprised me. From that drawing I ascertained certain working methods.  I came to the conclusion that he hikes into inaccessible areas and creates these "notes." Photography would never do for him because that is an entirely different kind of recording.    ...  [Displaying 1000 of 8356 characters.]  Artist bio
