New York Artist

July 3, 2009 in NPR

Matthew Cumbie sells a lot of his paintings on eBay — more than 1,000 over the past 10 years — but he's not about to give up his day job making brass mounts for three-dimensional objects at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

The 29-year-old painter started selling paintings on the Internet auction site for as little as $5 each when he was a student at the Rhode Island School of Design.
