Energetic Lich Painting

Clark Matthews is a Brooklyn-based abstract painter whose work is deeply influenced by a life of constant movement. Growing up as a military child, he traveled the world from an early age, experiencing a wide range of landscapes, cultures, and climates. This transient upbringing informs his artistic practice, with travel and natural elements serving as the core inspiration for his vibrant, dynamic paintings. Matthews' works are characterized by bold, energetic strokes and the use of vibrant, saturated colors that capture the intensity and motion of his experiences. His abstract compositions evoke the sense of movement and shifting perspectives he encountered while constantly transitioning between different geographies. Whether reflecting the serenity of a coastline, the energy of a bustling city, or the vastness of a desert, his paintings explore the relationship between the external environment and internal emotions. By channeling these experiences into visual form, Matthews’ art becomes a meditative process of translating the rhythms of the world around him. His unique approach allows him to transform landscapes, memories, and the natural elements into abstract expressions of motion and vitality. Currently residing in Brooklyn, Matthews continues to explore new techniques and perspectives, pushing the boundaries of color, form, and texture to create immersive works that invite viewers to experience the flow and vibrancy of life through his eyes.
