Artist Statement

Matthew Purchase is an artist with a passion for games. Computer Games, Board Games, Puzzle games, Social Games you name it. It is due to his obsession with gameplay that Matt found his knack for drawing and painting, and it is that obsession that shines through in his work today. Every painting, drawing and sculpture he produces has been influenced by Games one way or the other.

Whilst Matthew has had only a few years of experience in drawing and painting, his passion and drive propel his skill and style ever forward.
