MAKER #5 - MATTY BOURIS
Matt Bouris, in his Home Studio, Byron Bay, NSW
Matt is one of those complete freaks in life, who are not only blessed with a perfect face, including the best beard one have ever seen, but he is also gifted at everything he puts his hand to. If he wasn't such a dear friend and someone I respected so much, I would hate the man. But I don't hate (personal moto), I only love, and I love Matty B, like everyone else who knows him.
Matt is a multidisciplinarian; he's a talented designer, artist, he's modelled, art directed and brand managed. Over the years Matt has worked for RVCA, Insight, the Upside, Mitchell & Ness, NCAA, to his latest venture Something Very Special with partner Ainsley Hutchence.
In closing, if the 1997 film "FACE OFF" starring none other than John Travolta and Nicolas Cage was remade, I would definitely send in an audition for both he and I so that I could exchange my chubby cheeks for that gorgeous bearded chin of Matty B.
