Miguel Gonzalez

Teaches at Kline Academy of Fine Art

Miguel Angel Gonzalez was born in Penjamo, Guanajuato, Mexico and raised in Oregon where he began to explore his curiosity for creating art. Through his childhood and early adulthood Gonzalez has always taken the means to continue growing as an artist. In 2010, with the encouragement of his mentor and art instructor, Catherine Johnston, Gonzalez decided to apply to Laguna College of Art and Design (LCAD) where he recently completed his Bachelors of Fine Art degree. Gonzalez has studied with several highly respectable artists in the Los Angeles area while participating in several group shows along the West coast.

Gonzalez, believes that a strong fundamental understanding to drawing and painting will allow students the freedom to create what they desire. Gonzalez, currently lives in Lake Forest where he continues to develop his studio practice.
