Matthew Schaefer Abstract Paintings

American

Matthew Schaefer is a Chicago-based artist whose work employs gestural brush strokes with figurative subjects to portray emotion and energy in a flat portrait. The bright colors and distorted features give the figure an almost fauvist appearance. Schaefer attended the Silverman College of Art in Connecticut. His more recent paintings have explored a more minimal approach to painting.
