Meet the Artist
Matthew Lawrence emigrated thirty years ago to the United States of America to make his home. He was born in York, England, but wanderlust called him to travel. Settling in Pennsylvania he currently calls York County home.
His art is inspired by the Americana art of old. Matthew draws inspiration from the prints of Currier and Ives, Folk Art, tattoo flash, vintage signage, antique nature books, pop culture, his British childhood, time spent by the Susquehanna River and the fauna, fish, fowl and mammals he finds on his farm. He draws directly onto the wood, carves and then inks.
