TRADITIONAL MATTE PAINTINGS AND MNIATURES

 In this Blog, you will find mostly matte paintings and miniatures for films. CGI and digital matte paintings are fully covered on many blogs and web sites. This small place is dedicated to the art of traditional matte painting.

The blog is organized into four categories shown on the right sidebar.

1- Traditional matte painters from all around the world in alphabetical order.

2. Matte painting movies.   titles from all countries showing samples of glass and matte paintings. chronologically ordered.

3. Articles and history of mattes and miniatures.

4. Matte paintings from all around the world.

It still remains many professionals and movies I have to add, but if anyone has information that thinks it should be on this page, I'd love to hear from you.
