New, New, New!




As the title of this post suggests, I have some new things going on. First I have a new website at the same address http://www.mattflint.com/ but with a new look and feel. I have uploaded some new work to the site and am now able to upload content on a regular basis.
I now have representation in Santa Fe, NM with http://www.veilleuxfineart.com/
I am excited to work with the gallery and will have work available starting in mid March.


Lastly, I have two new works posted above. The first piece is a part of the Postcards from the Wild West Fundraiser for the Nicolaysen Museum of Art in Casper, WY. The second piece is available at Lyndsay McCandless Contemporary in Jackson Hole, WY.

Free Art Cards!

So the economy is really bad, people are tense, and life seems a bit bleak for many. As a way of something positive, I am going to give away 2"x3" mini paintings to anyone who wants them. Each piece is completely unique. I got the idea from Lyndsay McCandless who is doing a first Friday featuring free art cards.Feel free to pass this on to others who may appreciate it.

All you have to do is send an envelope to me with a SASE inside and I will send you the piece.

Mixed Media Works on Paper/Board

I have wanted to do some work that would combine the surface complexities of the oil paintings with a more immediate drawing like investigation. By using collaged layers of semi transparent papers and applying only water based media, I found I could layer up, manipulate, and quickly respond to ideas.

The results of my experimenting are three new pieces that are going to the show in Pella, Iowa. They are all 30"x22" collage, copy transfer, acrylic, gesso, and pencil on board.


"Schism"



"Fraction"





"Divided"
