Matthew Bailey Seigel

while i attended risd (rhode island school of design), my formal education was in industrial design, and i never touched a paint brush, nor took a painting course while there. i consider myself a self-taught painter, although the risd approach to all aspects of "the arts" is a major influence. the other major influence was growing up with a mother who teaches painting. my "painting career" only got under way when i joined a local art club after risd, where the structure of monthly shows, meeting other artists, and the all important pouring of wine for the openings was most beneficial
