We all love Matte, but do we really know him? Well you’re about to. If you’re a fan of his colorful work filled with whimsical creatures then you’ll enjoy this podcast with him hosted by Creative Thursday that just went live last night. It’s just over an hour but well worth the time since Matte talks all about how artists make a living, a great topic for the times! With all the creative types out there looking to get started doing their own thing or for established artists in need of some encouragement (and tips) to keep going, it’s a terrific podcast to listen in on!
Great job Marisa and Matte! And for those of you interested, Matte also has an etsy store with nearly 1,500 items sold since it launched just one year ago this month. He is a bright shooting star with fans worldwide — one to watch!

I have been thinking a lot about characters and color lately and this is just what I needed. Thank you so much.
I know that any time I go to your site I will come away with something that I need to inspire or to motivate! Thank you.
