I'm Matthew Ulstad the designer. My friends say I talk too much; my acquaintances say I talk too little. This is hopefully somewhere in between.

It's freaking Friday, right smack-dab in the middle of March Radness. Let these little bits from my 80's hoops collab with @abbieulstad set the tone heading into the weekend. ... #design #marchradness #basketball #80s https://www.instagram.com/p/BvmADvrFiI1/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=eqqg4nz1yoox

March Radness is upon us! Stoked to release this little series of hoops-inspired 80's prints, in collaboration with @abbieulstad. Available in art prints, t-shirts and fanny packs via the link in bio. And possibly a proper mini-print run of all three, if there is enough interest. https://www.instagram.com/p/BvjiD48lNuQ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=c9rhbd4usiuy

Growing up in the 90s, it's hard to pinpoint the exact moment that Stan Lee's life first intersected mine, but this comic was the seed that took root. This was pulled from the drawer of a dentist in rural MN after an appointment, and became my first and most often read comic. Just some simple, brilliant propaganda from the American Dental Association, but damn, it stuck. This was my gateway into Stan's world, and Spidey remains my fave to this day. Very few people have been worldbuilders like Stan was, and few will follow that don't stand on his shoulders. And I have yet to have a cavity. #excelsior https://www.instagram.com/p/BqG7JdUlzI1/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1pzwv2tv7isbw
