Michael Oatman, The Leisure Channel, 1987

Here are two images of Michael Oatman from our first taping of The Leisure Channel in 1987. Mike is amazing. And boy, I think we were just way too ahead of our time. Everything we thought was funny then has come true ….

Why Yes

Michael Oatman

I met Mike Oatman at the Rhode Island School of Design in 1983. At the time, people used to confuse us for each other.

Mike and I have remained friends for a number of years, and continue to inspire each other.

Mike made a beautiful collage for the cover of the print version of Instant Classics, which I tiled and printed out on the Iris printer at Digital Pond in 1995. Attached is a picture of the image. This has been a popular piece in my house for many years.

Mike is at the top of his game these days, and is getting big shows in museums and galleries. I’m listing Mike Oatman a ‘buy’.
