Matt Ryder - A Clear Vision

Matt Ryder is an award-winning British artist living and working in Dubai of the United Arab Emirates. Matt finds inspiration in the wild beauty of the natural world – whether it's land, sea, or sky. It's astonishing that there are still wild places left in the world that have not been painted. That's the unique situation Matt finds himself in where he lives in the Middle East. Matt takes advantage of the cooler seasons to paint outdoors among the majestic mountains where few people live. Inspired by John Singer Sargent's landscape paintings - The Moraine and Simplon Pass – Matt strives to capture the feel of the rugged, boulder-filled landscape before him. Braving desert heat, enduring "you shouldn't be here" looks from people in rare encounters, and bemused by camels curious about what he is doing – these are all in a day's plein air painting session with Matt Ryder.Before these isolated landscapes change and are lost forever, Matt is on a mission to capture with oil paint the extraordinary, rugged beauty of these wild lands unseen by most of us. Matt Ryder is truly an enthusiastic painter, earnestly painting these wondrous and mysterious landscapes with a clear vision.Mentioned in This EpisodeMatt Ryder Website https://www.ryderscanvas.comMatt Ryder Instagram https://www.instagram.com/mattryder/Matt Ryder Facebook https://www.facebook.com/MattRyderwildlifeart/Matt Ryder short film by filmmaker Joe Hawkins https://youtu.be/FlwMzXcyd9URosemary & Co video featuring Matt Ryder https://youtu.be/1OpkVkeDqggEdge Pro Paintbook (Pochade Box) https://www.edgeprogear.com/paintbookManfrotto Carbon Fiber tripod Manfrotto MT190CXPRO4 4 Section Carbon Fiber Tripod Legs with Q90 Column (Black) (affiliate link) https://amzn.to/2RqTrbaManfrotto 494 Aluminum Center Ball Head (affiliate link) https://amzn.to/3ebDnUGRosemary & Co Eclipse Range Brushes https://www.rosemaryandco.com/oil-brushes/eclipse-oilsIvory Range Brushes https://www.rosemaryandco.com/oil-brushes/ivory-oilsRembrandt Artist's Oil Colors King's Blue (affiliate link) https://amzn.to/2JXoI1kRaymar Linen Panel (affiliate link) https://amzn.to/39YSZaLEdgar Payne The Scenic Journey (affiliate link) https://amzn.to/2VhvHrbArt in the Open - Europe's Largest Plein Air Painting Festival https://web-eur.cvent.com/event/2f0dd677-eb2e-4a40-afcd-6e94b067e142/summaryJohn Singer Sargent Simplon Pass https://www.nga.gov/collection/art-object-page.166471.htmlJohn Singer Sargent The Moraine https://www.johnsingersargent.org/The-Moraine.htmlGlenn Dean https://www.landscapesofthewest.comJeremy Lipking https://www.lipking.comScott Christensen https://christensenstudio.com/Clyde Aspevig https://www.clydeaspevig.comMatt Smith https://www.mattsmithstudio.com https://carlolson.tv/artful-painter/matt-smith-impressionistic-naturalism-2Epidemic Sound (affiliate link) https://www.epidemicsound.com/referral/kgue7d/Debra Stamp https://www.debrastampart.com/About the Artful PainterAbout the Artful Painter: Website: https://theartfulpainter.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/CarlOlsonArt Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/artful.painter/This page may contain affiliate links from which I earn a small commission.
