Love is when you’re almost positive that person is your better half. Not that they’re better than you, but that both of you together creates something more amazing than you two separately. It’s when you can’t help but smile when you hear their name, and you still get butterflies in your stomach when you first see them. It’s when their pain is your pain, their happiness is your happiness. You can both see past each other’s facades and you understand how to deal with the person underneath the walls. It’s when every single love song ever relates to your life somehow, whether it’s the whole song or that one lyric. You get angry at each other for your faults, but as soon as you meet again the anger just fades away because you just can’t stay angry with someone who you could lose so easily. It’s when you understand that you must live your lives now and take advantage of each other’s time, even though you plan to spend the rest of your lives together. It’s giving up that last laugh to keep them around, or making a fool of yourself to bring a smile to their face. Essentially, it’s staying with each other because the other person completes you.

Mat Miller | mat1t (b.1985, UK) - Streaming Eyes / Fluidity
Ginger, peaceful (and odd!), Mat Miller is a UK based young artist. Bold, ethereal, offbeat, Mat’s artwork rarely carries any deep personal feelings or expressions. “Maybe on a subconscious level there is hidden feelings but none that I’m aware of. I only wish to make art that other people will appreciate. If my work sparks feelings within other people then that is brilliant but to be honest I think far too many artists are caught up in themselves and that’s just not my cup of tea.” Mat likes to get out with his camera to gather ideas and reference shots. As well as the beautiful outdoors he gains inspiration from the more bizarre world of humans! “Walking around antiques shops is always fun. It’s like a sensory overload sometimes. From the art and design world, I’m influenced by lots of contemporary street art as well as the lowbrow art and illustration movement that is so popular right now. My favourite artist is Camille Rose Garcia.” You can visit Mat’s Tumblr, Facebook and shop for more work and news. (Interview with artist by ARTchipel Apr-2012)
