Mat Edwards, Illustrator: Commercial artist Mat Edwards draws inspiration from the things he sees in daily life. He can create everything from modern to vintage designs, with the power of precision and repetition as key to the appeal of his works. Mat has been passionate about art since childhood, and counts artists such as Chris Foss, Tim White, and Rodney Mathews among his early inspirations. While his talent and eye for detail is a constant, his technique has evolved from using purely traditional materials such as pencils, gouache, stretching paper to using almost all-digital methods.
