Tropical Camouflage: Artworks by Matt W. Moore

After working on a number of digital projects for a few months, Portland-based artist Matt W. Moore challenged himself to create a series of handcrafted mixed media pieces for a change of pace.

The result is the ‘Tropical Camouflage’ series, exploring organic and spontaneous layered paintings with watercolors, inks, & acrylics. He explains the process:

“I got all the paper drenched & worked the series all at once, adding washes, textures, & letting dry.”

“Then repeating this process again & again for each, diving back in with more groovy layers. After a few rounds of this I reached the point where it seemed more fun to grab scalpel & scissors to remix them all together & see where that would go rather than continuing with each piece on its own as a traditional canvas.”
