Michael j Strang

a painting is but a prayer

Join us in an exploration and celebration of the legacy of one of England’s best-loved painters; Michael J Strang.

Michael was both a dear friend of the gallery and a highly regarded artist. It was a pleasure to work with and exhibit his work here at The Summerhouse. Michael leaves behind not only a hugely extensive and wonderful collection of paintings but also the memories of an extraordinary man. Someone who truly lived through their art and possessed a love for painting that remains evident upon the walls of our gallery today. If you were lucky enough to meet and chat with Michael, he will have no doubt left you with a story to tell and a smile on your face.

Following Michael’s passing in 2021, we have worked closely alongside his much-loved family, as well as close friend John Watson, to bring you the full spectrum of Michael’s work and some of the stories behind the paintings. This body of work will provide a truly unique and in-depth insight into the technique, inspiration and life of Michael Strang.
