I’m Matt Coates, a watercolour artist from Titirangi
Since I was young, I’ve always had a passion for art and for the past decade I have focussed on watercolours. Most of my inspiration comes from my surroundings in Titirangi and frequent trips to the local beach, supplying me with plenty of ideas.
I love the vibrant colours of the paint and the technique of adding water which often gives you some nice little surprises when the painting is dry.
Recently I have started working in acrylic which is very different to watercolours, working with thick paint on a easel has been a great and rewarding challenge so far.
