With the enchanting artwork that he has created for The Legend of Everwinter, Matthew hopes to add a little more magic to the world we live in, and to spark happiness in the hearts of both children and adults alike. Matthew is now a qualified art lecturer and teaches A Level Art and Photography to 16 to 18 year olds at college. Through the use of his art, Matthew Hill has also contributed extensively to his community, providing local schools with colourful illustrations to inspire their pupils, and delivering lectures and workshops to both young and adult audiences. Inspired by popular Disney films, JK Rowlings Harry Potter books and JRR Tolkiens Lord of the Rings, The Legend of Everwinter is set in a faraway land. Since graduating with a Masters Degree in Fine Art, Matthew has worked as a professional illustrator, producing both traditional and digital artwork for a broad range of clients within the creative industries, including architectural design companies and iPhone game development studios. Matthew Hill, 24, from Cradley Heath, illustrated The Legend of Everwinter, written by Bedworths Tara Behan, his partner of threeand-a-half-years. The simple philosophy that he follows is ‘that art should be meaningful and have a positive effect on those who view it.’ Since then he has gone on to win numerous awards, such as the Whitworth Wallis Painting Award, and has exhibited artwork in cities across the UK, including London, Birmingham, Worcester and Coventry. Matthew Hill’s dedication and success in art began at an early age, when at just 9 years old he won £5000 in a nationwide art competition to promote healthy school meals.
