Matthew J. Wetzler

Austin, TX

Howdy! Nice to meet you. As you can maybe tell from above my name is Matt, but others call me Matthew, thewmatt, Mattuke or even Steve. A creative director at Staats Falkenberg, I am also a designer, photographer and gamer. My house is full of pets (3 Dogs, 3 cats) and an amazing wife. I like penguins.

    Numbered as if they go 1 through 12 from the top: 4, 6, 7, 8, 12. As to why, each one for different reasons, and I don't necessarily have a favorite of those five. There is something really poignant about the flag on the right and the framed photo on wall in #6. Compositionally I love everything about it. Keep up the great work!
