<p>The first thing that caught my eye when I found <a href="http://matteart.blogspot.com/" target="_self">Matte Stephens </a>was his name.</p>
<p>(Is Matte his given name? Maybe we could use it as Matthias&#39; nickname, now that his brothers have decided to nickname him &quot;oven because he has a fire inside.&quot; Well!)</p>
<p>Back to Matte -- I saw his art and fell in love with his Boston-themed work. Especially this one:&#0160;</p>

Surprisingly, it&#39;s called &quot;Boston.&quot; I know! Simple.
<p>He has the print in his <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/62593120/boston-limited-edition-print-by-matte" target="_self">Etsy shop for $60</a>, but if any of you are wondering what to get me for Christmas the original is on sale at <a href="http://sebastianfoster.com/bostonoriginalpaintingbymattestephens.aspx" target="_self">Sebastian* Foster for $900</a>.</p>
<p>(Yes, I am shameless.)</p>
<p>*Another name I love. I am good at naming boys.</p>

<p>The last two aren&#39;t officially Boston-inspired, but one look out my window tells me this could have been inspired by our weather. There&#39;s no point in denying it, Matte!</p>
