Manage episode 502841480 series 3600868
In this episode of Scoreboard, Chris Titley sits down with self-taught artist and PE teacher Matt McMillan, who has built a growing following through his sports-inspired artwork.
From his first drawings in 2014 to todayโs one-of-one commissioned pieces, Matt shares how he blends his love of sport and creativity, the boom of trading cards during COVID, and what itโs like collaborating with AFL stars and their families.
Matt also opens up about the challenges of pricing art, balancing teaching with his artistic ambitions, and how becoming a dad โ and the passing of his own father โ reshaped his priorities and inspired his work.
From his favourite sporting memories to his bucket list dream of attending the Masters, this conversation explores resilience, creativity, and the pursuit of balance between passion and profession.
