Matt Sheridan's lecture at the Dowd Gallery was very interesting and impressive. It was great to see that someone from the Finger Lakes New York can travel across the world, work on television series, and be a recognized artist. He also made it clear that you don't have to stick to one type of art technique or work/job. When he got tired or bored of one job he managed to find a way to a new work environment that was more appealing to him at the time. Matt Sheridan also played with his own personal art techniques and methods to figure out what fit him. Change is good in artwork, and consistent change brings out how that artist is feeling at that current time. How people feel changes and their artwork shows it, and for Matt Sheridan he found that a change in jobs as well as personal artwork can take you where you want to be in life.
Something interesting that I took away from the lecture is that even though you may not find a certain piece of artwork you created amazing or perfect, doesn't mean that someone else won't be inspired by it.
