Thank you so much for this intimate view of yourself. I enjoyed viewing it and will pass it along to Helen Hiebert and our group in The Paper Year.

Absolutely love this short film. It's a beautiful look into your workflow and personal philosophy. I especially loved the part about your dad going from "are you going to get a job" to "have you drawn anything today?" I work in the visual effects field and have a great number of friends in the games industry and I remember when I was going back to school for computer animation in the early 2000's after leaving architecture so many parents were asking what kind of careers their kids could have in video games.

Top notch filmmaking and always inspiring to hear how you approach the enterprise of art. I’m in SF next week with some time to explore and wondered if there is anywhere your art is displayed (in a gallery or otherwise) where I could see it in person?

It’s such a treat to hear about your work in your own words and to see behind the scenes. It was also such a joy to see your work in-person at Jennifer Kostuik Gallery recently. Sorry you weren’t able to be there.

Keep on making your amazing art, Matthew. The world is so much better with your work in it.
