Leopard Country
50x30, oil on linen. I wanted this painting to be about a Baobab. The Leopard helps show the scale of this massive tree.

Snowy Egret in Surf, Oil by Matthew, 18x24- "I made a wonderful discovery on our recent trip to England. Little Egrets! Since I've been in America Little Egrets have populated Southern England. We saw a group of three every morning patrolling the shoreline. Although, this is an American Snowy, I was definitely inspired by those English Egrets."

Matthew latest- Woodstork, 36x24, oil. "I saw this Woodstork one rainy morning in the Everglades. He looked so miserable that I could not resist painting him. I felt the subject was suited to a looser approach and had lots of fun slapping on wet oil with large brushes. I didn't want to overthink my technique, I just reacted to my subject."

Matthew's painting- " I painted this view of Clymping Beach whilst standing on the old concrete blocks which were intended to stop the German invasion back in WWII. For 10 years this felt like my own private beach. I was caretaker of a large country house called Poole Place that stands just behind this wall."

Matthew's painting- "We spent a wonderful afternoon painting, listening to the birds and the occational train going to and coming from London. Field painting hightens your senses. Not just helping to understand tone & color, but even the wind blowing through the reeds & the distant sound of the Cricket match from Arundel Park all becomes a part of the painting- A Day to remember!!"
