Michael Godfrey describes his style as a combination of George Inness’ impressionism with the moods of an Albert Bierstadt painting. "I paint," he says "to help people notice the special moments that happen every day, especially the drama when light first splashes across a scene." From different perspectives and different times of day, he works to capture and interpret the varying moods of light.

On a series of painting trips in recent years, Michael Godfrey has traveled to paint the quiet beauty of marshes along the Chesapeake Bay of Maryland, the colors of the Shenandoah Valley, to the grandeur of the Rocky Mountain ranges in the West. Typically, he starts a major work using small oil studies done on location. These field studies provide color accuracy and photographs provide special details.

Godfrey has shown his paintings in numerous national shows and museum exhibitions. He was one of 50 artists selected for The Haggin Museum exhibition, “From Sea to Shining Sea,” a two year traveling show focused on American landscapes.
