In his innovative Moving Paintings collection, Steve Matson combines traditional painting with cinematography, visual effects, digital painting, animation, music and sound effects. Each image contains 18,000 individual images and animated elements that play back at 24 images per second. The art pieces play continuously all day long, yet hang seamlessly on your wall like traditional paintings. His landscapes capture the peace and serenity of the natural world.
