MCM and his story in the arts begins when he was a child. He developed a fascination and interest in drawing figures from comic books, morning cartoons, and famous figures from pop culture. At a very early age Matthew started learning how to draw as it was an escape and outlet for him. He was that kid that did a lot of things on their own so when he first started doing art and developing this skill it was not a problem for him at all staying focus on one particular activity.
