The Gallery

Welcome to my Matt Brown Web-site Gallery.

You'll find displays of my prints arranged according to subject matter. Some prints may appear in duplicate categories.

These prints represent the bulk of my work. My prints reflect the beautiful places around my home and sights I've found during my travels.

To purchase prints, please visit the Shop.

Mountain Prints:

These prints are grouped more or less chronologically, the first being the most recent.

I use in teaching an analogy to describe the development and production of a hanga woodblock print, I call it "the theater analogy":

- "the blocks are the actors, the colors, their lines"

- "as the artist and maker of the print you are like the producer and director, you establish the idea and the road map for the project, but the success of the things depends a great deal on your being flexible and listening to the actors and their interactions as things develop".

A theater performance is not a fixed thing. Each performance is different. Similarly no two hanga prints in an edition are exactly the same, there are too many steps involving head and hand for them to be identical.

You'll notice prints labeled "second" or "third" state. This refers to a significant re-working of the print that is like a whole new production (including the addition of new blocks) , the changing of colors, the re-fashioning or editing of significant parts of the image.
