The Creator - Producer, Director

IPC (iPaintCreatures), is the visionary creator behind the entire Matsuu story-verse. A multi-disciplinary artist whose work bridges ancient tradition and cutting-edge innovation, IPC weaves together poetry, art, technology, and performance to bring the epic world of Matsu to life.

 

An award-winning, published poet and 21st-century storyteller, IPC's roots reach deep into the Yokai oral folktale traditions and the poetic lineage of Japan’s royal court. His career spans working with global giants like Lucasfilm LTD. under George Lucas, Apple Computers under Steve Jobs, and Microsoft under Bill Gates, blending high-tech mastery with timeless art.

 

IPC is also an accomplished filmmaker, fine artist, art educator, voice actor and coach, professional puppeteer, animator, video editor, motion graphics technician, audio engineer, musician, theatrical and film director, and producer. As a traditional and digital painter, illustrator, concept character developer, and specialist in creature creation and yokaiology, he has earned acclaim for breathing life into fantastical worlds and characters.

 

Through Matsuu and the FunkyIPuppets, IPC invites the world to rediscover the transformative magic of imagination, creativity, and collective storytelling.
