Art > Dad _ Editions, Matthew Scott Gualco

UNBOUND 2020 Archive (Virtual)

Art > DAD _ Editions comes from my own dyslexic misunderstanding of the world and my misadventures therein.

I genuinely want to make people smile when they interact with my art and invite them to contemplate the sacredness of some of our value systems. matthewscottgualco.bigcartel.com
