ABOUT MATTHIEU FERNANDES

With over 15 years as an Art Director in branding design, I have balanced creativity and business across global projects. However, my true passion lies in art, particularly in using my photographic eye to capture the essence of human expressions through detailed illustrative portraits on large canvases. My work is inspired by Pop Artists like Haring, Basquiat, Lichtenstein, as well as classical Renaissance painters and contemporary street artists.

I aim to partner with curators/collectors to expand my reach and showcase my work in creative spaces. Collaborating with galleries that operate on commission is key. Investing in art is not only about acquiring creativity but also supporting emerging artists & making an investment that increases over time. Join me in this artistic journey and be part of something beautiful.
