GUARDIAN ANGEL.
MATT SESOW, PAINTER, SELF-TAUGHT.
My painting style was built upon the foundation of creating art in response to childhood trauma. I was struck by the propeller of a landing airplane in 1975 that resulted in the amputation of my dominant hand when I was eight years old. I have had to adjust, grow, and heal in ways that aren’t normal nor obvious. I have used painting to communicate with others (and myself) in ways words are unable to express.
