A propos mrmatel

Mathieu Laroche also known as Matel is an artist based in Quebec city, paradise of sport fishing and ice cold winters. He started his career working for FOKUS productions on the movies called "Sugar Shack", designing and animating. Fondamentally working in the snowboard industry, Matel and 4 long time friends started the headwear company called "IFOUND" in which he does the art direction. He also worked with Rome snowboards, Volcom as a featured artist and is now working for YES snowboards while not designing beanies and tees. He started an art galery in Quebec city called Morgan Bridge with fellow artists and writers. He still pushes the boundaries of his paintings and drawings for various shows. While not painting or computing, he’s fishing with friends, drinking alcohol and relaxing to refresh ideas.
