ABOUT MATT FONTAINE

I am a graduate of the Fine Art program at Grant MacEwan as well as The Design Studies program with  a major in Design and Illustration, also at Grant MacEwan. For the last year I have gradually been working on making new work and getting my name out there! It’s been a combination of hard work and a lot of self promotion! I am on Twitter by the way! Facebook too!

Ever since I was a child I’ve loved to draw and my influences started with comics and have spread out from there. My style that I aim for is a look of semi realism. I like portraits and images that don’t try to make you wonder if it’s a painting or a photograph. Though I admire those artists who are talented enough to do that. For me the kind of style I like tends to be a look that has a real drawn and sketchy look to them. This is a style I aim to push my art towards.
