Painting the interplay between nature and human intervention and bringing to life in acrylic ink and watercolour, the ways we imprint our human journeys upon the landscape.

About me

Matthew’s work explores the sometimes-stark beauty of the Yorkshire Dales landscapes. He is fascinated by the changing nature of the countryside and how it is affected not only by the seasons, the light and the weather conditions but also by human intervention – the sculptural forms of trees and hedges cut-back to allow farm trailers to pass through the narrow country roads, the dry-stone walls, fences and old farm gates, even road signs and telegraph poles.
