Matt Gauck

date:

Tuesday, April 12

medium: oil

bio: Matt Gauck was trained as an illustrator, and was a decent math student before art school. His aim in all his artwork is to give a couple visual clues that allow a story to form. He is also a vegan, and bikes extremely long distances for "fun".
on the importance of art:

I think art serves to inspire the audience to be more creative in their lives - through music, visual art, traveling - anything. Creativity wins out over a 'normal 9-5 job' every time, and art helps people to remember that.
