Matt’s love for art started in childhood when he used to watch his dad draw and shape things out of wood. He loved the way his dad was able to take a blank canvas and create something special out of it. At an early age, Matt decided to follow in his father’s footsteps and create his own pieces.

From high school to college at Villanova University, Matt studied various mediums and created works that still hang in his parents' house back home. It started as a hobby and an outlet for him to escape from the pressures of every day life and focus on something else for a while.

One day, a teammate discovered some drawings and paintings Matt had done and asked Matt if he would paint something for him. Matt agreed, and the rest is history.

What started as a hobby for Matt gained recognition through social media and coverage in Chicago newspapers. From there, Chicago Cubs Charities asked Matt to paint a World Series piece to auction off at their annual charity ball. Most recently, MLB Network tapped Matt to create stunning player portraits for their 2025 Opening Week TV commercial, in which he also made an appearance. Watch the commercial here:
