classic nudz
A fresh look at the timeless art form of figuring painting by Matthew Smith
Summary
“Art is my life. I have been creating art since I was a child. Art is who I am, it's how I have learned and grown as a human being. It is my form of expression, a place to escape in deep thought, and to hone my skills. I am a classically trained artist and I love painting the human figure. It is my goal to put together a book of some of my most liked figure paintings along with new figurative work as well. For years admirers of my art and artists whom I respect have told me that my art looks "fresh" and "modern". This has always been one of my favorite compliments to receive. To me, it means that my art has a new and interesting look to it. I started creating these small figure painting to explore new ideas and push new concepts of design, composition, color, form, and brushwork. With this idea, I bring to Kickstarter my first self published book, "classic nūdz", which will be a fresh take on the timeless art form of painting the human figure.”
