Recent painting of the Abbotsford area, influenced by Hundertwasser an artist and architect from Austria and later New Zealand. He was a pioneer of the sustainable movement, quoted in saying “Straight lines are godless“
“Rick is an artist with a very well-developed sense of place and a real affinity for the natural environment. It is clear from looking at his work that he has an intimate and profound relationship with his subject. His paintings are the result of two great things: an artist who possesses a refined technique that perfectly matches his subject matter; and an artist who honours and completely belongs to the landscape he is painting.” ~ Animator Sal Cooper 2014

Rick Matear loves painting and the atmosphere at the Abbotsford Convent. His door is usually open, where he can be seen making pictures. Rick is renowned for his compelling depictions of the picturesque coastal area of the Mornington Peninsula. His paintings reflect his love of the beach and landscape, where he has spent every summer he can remember. “Painting the beach extends summer as long as possible”, says Rick.
