Matt Sesow
Matt Sesow paints. He uses strong colors, strokes and speed to bring Life to the cardboard and canvas he paints on. At times, Sesow manages to finish ten paintings a night, as he testifies. Sesow lost his left arm's hand during an airplane accident in his childhood. This disability is transcended in the paintings emotionally as well as to other parts of the body, physically.
Matt Sesow lives and creates in his studio, located in Washington, DC. You can view more of his paintings and video art on his website.
