Below are a few images of some of my artwork (extensive projects involving my art have been documented under the 'projects' tab of my website above). i typically do not sell my work, but usually donate pieces, share some with friends, and use my work (through exhibition and publication) to spread a consciousness about the relationships and connections I am making with issues.

Stuffed dolls by matthew wittmer, December 2009

Stuffed dolls, December 2009.
Making these dolls was inspired by visiting with dollmaker Shari Enge and seeing/purchasing a few
of the wonderful dolls she makes. She maintains her own website at: http://oldsouldollco.com/
My dolls are also the result of my fascination with learning how to use a sewing machine this
past summer.
