The Chimera Live at CTC 2014
Matt recently had the pleasure and honor of producing this titan mural with Dom Forte & Steve Shriver in front of a live audience over the course of 2 days at the Classical Traditions Conference in Salt Lake City. Many thanks to Robert Baird for the invite to perform, and to Jeff Cobabe for lending his space to practice in, as well as Steve McCurdy and Eli Baird for producing this great time-lapse of the creation. Dimensions of the mural are 7’6” tall by 11’ wide and it was auctioned on site, before it was finished, for $43,000 to help fund scholarships.
