About Matt

 Hello, thanks for checking out my website, I hope you enjoy viewing the paintings as much as I enjoyed painting them. The art of painting has been a source of pleasure and fascination to me since primary school days, I would look through books of art, finding paintings that appealed to me and knew that’s what I wanted to do. Pursuing that goal is an ongoing buzz for my brain – very fulfilling. I live on the Sunshine Coast of Queensland and enjoy the freedom of being self employed, painting most days, inspiration comes to me through the things that I find visually pleasing, consistently, that is shiny objects and reflective surfaces. Silver plated statues, mirrors, shiny floors, satin drapery, I love investigating what makes them look shiny and transferring that to canvas.

I welcome your correspondence, if you would like to purchase an original painting, or order copies of my book, “101 Paintings”, (see home page), you can contact me via email; mattocal@gmail.com or phone (07) 5446 9901, mobile 0448 477 161. Thanks and all the best to you, Matt.
