Mike Busam was born in the state of Ohio in 1968 and have never left. Currently works for the Lane Library Bookmobile & Outreach Services department in Hamilton, Ohio. Spends most days at grade schools (which is a lot of fun).
He says: "I aim to use materials that I have at hand and within reach--recycled newspaper (older ones have interesting fonts and design elements), magazines, used guitar strings, leaves, dead insects, etc. Lately, I've been using letter stamps to make one-off pieces, and that's been fun. I try to work within my limited abilities as best as I can, and usually the resulting mistakes and miscues are far more interesting than my usually serious original intentions."
