Dedham Art Association’s 2026 Spring Members’ Exhibit Juror
Matt Miller

May 2026, Westwood Library

Matt Miller returned to his first love of representational painting about two decades ago. At an early age, he fell in love with the works of Rembrandt van Rijn, a love that carries through to today. “I remember standing in front of a portrait of his of an old man and finding myself brought to tears. That an artist some 375 years ago, from an entirely different world, speaking a different language, and from a different culture, could reach through time and speak so profoundly to a person of my time, to me, is the highest form of art. I seek in my art to reach such a pinnacle of truth, to make my work speak so directly to those who view it.”

Currently painting and teaching out of his studio in Norton, MA, Matt paints in a direct style, with a simple, limited palette. With sensitivity, mastery of technique, and a magician’s sleight of hand, he endeavors to engage you, the viewer—to not only pique your interest, but to reach your heart. His works have been presented at the Oil Painters of America, Portrait Society of America, National Oil and Acrylic Painters’ Society, and International Guild of Realism, amongst others. He is a Master Artist at the esteemed Copley Society of Art and co-founder and teacher at the online academy Epiphany Fine Art.
