SLEWNIVERSE | The Non-Stop Art Hustle | Kiptoe | SLEWNIVERSE ep. 7 @slewniverse893 | Uploaded September 2021 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
Matt Dean (aka) Kiptoe is an international muralist and video creator. Based In Los Angles, Kiptoe has been pushing the idea of what it means to be an artist in 2021…. with murals, short films, solo gallery shows, and a video library documenting his work since the inception of his passion. With a seemingly unlimited amount of hustle and grind, Kiptoe sets the bar for grinding out projects and challenging oneself as an artist. His color palette and style can be linked to his interests in superheroes, movies, comics, and his travels. Matt also loves to dance. From illustrating for Fortnite, traveling around the world for mural tours, and producing a street art action film, Kiptoe is a true artist who is leaving his mark on the globe!
