Myke Reilly is an American-born abstract painter and sculptor currently based in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. His work explores minimalist forms, shaped by strong influences from American Mid-Century Modernism and the European Bauhaus movement. Reilly’s practice reflects a lifelong engagement with form, balance, and material, resulting in compositions that are both expressive and architecturally grounded.

He began painting at an early age under the guidance of his uncle, mid-century desert painter Jerry Reilly. With this early mentorship, he developed a disciplined studio practice, spending much of his childhood and adolescence at the easeIn 1978, at the age of 16, Reilly moved to San Francisco, where he achieved international recognition as a recording artist, sound designer, interior designer, and digital media designer. He is regarded as a pioneer in electronic music and toured with European superstars Depeche Mode in 1992.

At age 50, Reilly returned to painting, producing a striking body of bold, expressionistic abstract works that quickly drew the attention of collectors and designers along the California West Coast. His work has since been commissioned by leading architects and interior designers, including Jonathan Adler, Jay Jeffers, De Sousa Hughes, and Merck & Co.

Reilly currently works between San Francisco and San Miguel de Allende, where his studio and gallery are located within the Casa Aurora Artists Collective.
