Duncan G Hewitt Hi Matthew
I love your high view perspective cityscapes!!! I love building paintings a lot by edward hopper. Have you ever seen any of his pictures? I like your realistic works and it must take a lot to get them to work right. I like the one of the woman striding which was art of the day and lots of them. Duncan.

Matthew Carter Hi Duncan,
Thanks for that. I too love Hopper and am flattered to be compared to him of course. My favourites are the lonely figures in urban settings - something about the isolation. I am most interested in the psychology of urban spaces. Matt

Your city scapes are amazing. Just discovered Saatchi and you are my favorite artist that I've discovered thus far. Do you do smaller pieces? I would love to own an original. I would be pscyhed for you to check out my work at www.aliwarren.com. Please let me know if you have any more originals available. Ali

Peter Seminck Flabbergasting stuff !
I suggest you have a look at a French artist by the name of Nicolas Odinet. Almost identical technique.
