Machynlleth, Wales.- The Museum of Modern Art, Wales is proud to present “Matthew Wood: 110 Paintings of Wales”, on view at the museum until September 3rd. After producing landscape paintings in Shropshire, Brussels and a variety of other European locations over the last 8 years, it was through geographical serendipity that I happened upon the theme of Welsh landscape. I have always been drawn to Wales as a source of inspiration. The Welsh landscape is arguably both sublime and picturesque: it represents a seemingly endless diversity of landscape motif, be it the calming southern vistas of the Cambrian Mountains seen from Aran Fawddwy, the upfront and brutal landscape of the Ogwen Valley in Snowdonia or the scenic viewpoints of the Pembrokeshire coastline.
