Sculptural paintings

These intricately detailed paintings from Mathew Tom are simply stunning don't you think? American artist living in London, Mathew creates beautiful symmetry with oils on linen in a way that you just can't stop staring. And throw in a bit of drawing and you have yourself one creative art piece. In college I used to play around with sculptural paintings like this, I might have to put this on my list of inspiration for future projects...there is something so soothing about painting.
