Michael James Stilkey Jr. (born October 15, 1975) is an American artist known for his book sculpture paintings.
==Early life==
Mike Stilkey was born in Tarzana, California, and spent his childhood moving from city to city primarily in the Los Angeles area. From age 8 to 14, Stilkey attended a different school each year. Most of his childhood was spent in Malibu Lake, a small town Stilkey describes as a "hippy party community."〔https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u4i-e2y8PXI&feature=youtu.be&list=UUb1am6s-fkLLxoIr5MJEHFA〕 The son of addict parents, Stilkey found himself at a very early age immersed in a world of drug culture, parties and a life without discipline. "I was allowed to do anything I wanted. There were no rules."〔https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u4i-e2y8PXI&feature=youtu.be&list=UUb1am6s-fkLLxoIr5MJEHFA〕
In his teenage years, Stilkey picked up skateboarding. He described skateboarding as a retreat away from his dysfunctional family. Stilkey claims his artwork was partly inspired by the spirit of skateboarding which taught him how to take a different perspective on life and living. "When people are looking ahead, I'm looking at the details of the curb…looking at different things."〔https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u4i-e2y8PXI&feature=youtu.be&list=UUb1am6s-fkLLxoIr5MJEHFA〕 Stilkey's dream of becoming a professional skateboarder was crushed at age 20 after a series of injuries.
With his injury sidelining him from his skateboard, the now 20-year-old Stilkey turned to drawing and painting. "My family never talked about feelings. I was not allowed to express myself as a kid. Skateboarding was where I let out my emotions, but since I couldn't skate anymore, I picked up a pencil and expressed what was inside…the good, the bad and the unknown. This was the only way I could let it out." Stilkey has described going into a fantasy world while creating art. "I was doing drugs, I had addicts for parents and a messed up family. Art saved my life."
