About The Artwork
We found the right tree in the park and placed or altar there as the procession just entered with it's pulsating music setting a tone of joy and celebration in your soul .On a piece of claro walnut that I carved by hand we left our offerings of their favorite possesions they enjoyed in this life to welcome them back, lit our candles next to their photos to help them find their way, placed flowers to show we loved them and left letters to say hello and to wish them a safe trip home. The music then stops and the silence is deafening as your memories of them rush in and come to life within you once more.....Dia de los muertos was as always a bittersweet powerful evening full of tears followed by laughter and a sense of peace. This painting does not do it justice but I tried my best....thank you for looking and most especially thank you to those have who have shared these times with me by saying hello and then goodbye to those we will never forget and still love dearly.

United States
Matthew McDermott, b. 1981 NY, is an artist living and working in the San Francisco Bay Area. Mat struggles with mental illness and epilepsy on a day to day basis but has found his purpose in the creative arts in the form of painting, stained glass and custom woodworking. Prior to 2018 his work was available only through a commission basis and resides in private collections throughout the United States. In 2015 he was fortunate enough to gain a patron that funded the body of his work now available in his portfolio. "My artwork has become my only way to find myself again. Life is good when I'm painting and creating and I'm happy because I'm doing what I love. When things are bad I focus on the fact that my art is there waiting for me to get better and that it is something to hang on to when everything seems so horrible and normal life feels like a dream or a story that can't possibly be real."
