Figurative Study


In this section of ongoing work, the primary focus is to study the presence of the captivating performer.  This subject matter is at the centre of Matthew's inspriation, fascintated by the masks of various acts and the entangling of multiple identities as they move and empower their audience with sheer confidence and skill.

Figurative painting practice sets the groundwork for Matthew's in-depth study, while keeping his palette work sharp and honing painting skill.  A key goal here is to explore identities of the modern individualists & idealogies of the successful artist.

Intuitive Study


Here you will find Matthew's most personal works, raw and transformative. His approach is rooted in abstract expression, offering you an extraordinary window of escapism, emotional connection, and self-discovery.

Through Matthew's oil paintings, he aims to provide you with a therapeutic outlet that goes beyond the traditional boundaries of literal painting. The personal work delves deep into the realms of multiple imagery in shapes and shadows, bringing forth the emotion of the moment and surfacing subconscious imagery.

In moments of time, embrace raw mark making and fluid blending of emotions which flow freely in the space of the canvas. The viewer is invited to look further and explore the layers beneath the surface of the day to day. Matthew's art encourages introspection, reflection, and an emotional connection that bridges the gap between the artist and the heartful viewer.
