Ohh, I really like these. They make me think of some sort of wonderful, campy cartoon show. I wish they were stills from a real cartoon; I bet it would be amazing!
Matte - If you are reading this - start selling prints so we can all afford your pieces!
Wow - these look like they could have come straight from the book "Cartoon Modern" about cartoon animation styles of the 30s/40s/50s!
Great blog, by the way. Content is great and the blog design itself is absolutely gorgeous.
Wow absolutely amazing. This is really curently my favorite artist. What a pleasant surprise to see Matte's paintings here. He is one of the few that REALLY get it!
I love animation and illustration from that time period They were the greatest. I think my favorite illustrator is Cliff Roberts.One of the first books i had as a child was the first book of jazz.I think that book really directed the way my art went.
I love to make blockish characters that look like they have a really hard time moving.Im inspired mostly by Holiday Fair toys from the 1960s.They are super! Really cheap when you can find them.
To the person that posted about prints im working on a silkscreen print now of the double sided Vivienne.Thanks!
I like it.
Queste grafiche sono deliziose!
grazie, ripasserò presto a trovarti
