'Matthew Stradling is one of the most accomplished painters of the male nude in Britain today. Born in Hertfordshire in south-east England, Matthew now works from his studio in North London. His work has been exhibited internationally and he has had twelve solo exhibitions in London and Paris...'

Matthew Stradling’s work celebrates the sensuality of the human form - figures often luxuriating, nude, against lush decorative backgrounds or sometimes frozen, naked, into empty fields of muted color. The textures of flesh are captured with the use of layers of delicate color and the sensitive rendering of light.
