About the Item
I think of my work as being like a visual journal- observations and interpretations of people, places and things I experience day to day. Translating that experience into two dimensional imagery is a challenge that I look forward to whether I am in my studio or out painting on site. It's about the exploration of design, light, shadow, color and texture. Subject matter may vary just as daily experiences will change. I enjoy the hard architectural elements of an urban landscape or an interior space, and occasionally I like contrasting that with the softness and vulnerability of the human form.
Whatever the focus of a particular painting, I find that when I really connect with my subject, other people viewing my work can sense that and feel the connection as well. There is a narrative quality to my painting, but it's a partial narrative. I often find that what is most interesting is what is left unsaid. To quote Edward Hopper: "If you could say it in words there would be no reason to paint."

- Southland BoothsBy Matt CondronLocated in Fairfield, CTHaving spent many years as a photographer, Matt Condron is trained to recognize the importance of a moment or the preciousness of a fleeting opportunity. He is captivated by the idea of emptiness, as both a suggestion of solitude and as a state rife with the possibility of change and fulfillment. As a painter, he seeks out familiar, evocative scenes and concentrates on capturing the stillness of an empty room or vacant chair. His paintings can be seen as solitary, or as simply aberrant pauses between moments of frantic activity. The works are imbued with a quality of light that brings simple, content-rich objects into sharp focus. Condron attempts to establish not so much a connection to a chair or a room, but the feeling created by the wide embrace of emptiness. Ultimately, Condron creates scenes - part representation of real places, part invention from deep in his mind. The openness of his works invites the viewer to share the moment of quiet with him. By choosing places that seem to have been abruptly vacated, he attempts to awaken a connection to the moment before, or to the quietude he preserves inside himself in the form of memories. Matt Condron was born in 1967 in Simi Valley...Category
