Matthew Rucker
Minneapolis, Minnesota
Matthew Rucker paints in response to the chaotic world we live in. His style is hyperminimalist (hyperrealism + minimalism) that embrace simplicity, lightness and tranquility. These paintings are designed to be easy on both the eye and the mind and emerge as a result of his own search for peace. He is severely colorblind and see’s about 1% of the colors most people can see. He instead feels color on an emotional level. The colors are mixed on a palette until the color feels right.
