Matt Flores is building momentum in pursuing several series simultaneously.
The Urban Corners series is where Matt is currently pursuing the gouache medium in colorful explorations of the Pittsburgh region.
Singular / one-off works done as experiments, for friends, or for shows with a particular subject.
The Habit series of sketchbooks serves multiple purposes to the artist including: study, musing repository, material testing surface, occasional journal, and sticker repository.
