Mike McCarley, also known as Mike Mike, is a San Diego-based painter and illustrator whose work fuses coastal calm with a playful edge. With roots in skateboard art, cartoons, and an enduring love for the color blue, Mike's style blends bold graphic energy with soft emotional resonance. His pieces often explore darker themes through a lens of charm and simplicity — where "tough" imagery is made unexpectedly adorable.
