Artist doctor Matt Allred answers 7 Questions with Emmy from inside the large igloo he built
Published at | Updated at
Every week I’m interviewing fascinating people in our community, nation and around the world!
The idea came from a Facebook commenter who saw a video of me and my family floating down the river in Island Park. The person said I should turn the tables and interview my dad (Nate Eaton) – so I did and the rest is history!
Matt Allred is a father of four who works as an OB-GYN at Madison Women’s Clinic. He’s very creative and is known for his amazing driveway chalk drawings. He and his family also have a YouTube channel where they feature Mario Hot Wheels races.
But I first learned about Matt last year when he built a colorful igloo in his backyard. I even spoke about the cool project on The Drew Barrymore Show.
This year Matt built an even bigger igloo – and he invited me to interview him inside with a mug of hot chocolate.
Here are the questions I asked:
- How did it take to make the igloo?
- Tell me how you made the igloo.
- How long does it take you to make the Hot Wheel tracks?
- What’s your favorite chalk art drawing that you’ve done?
- What made you want to build the igloo?
- What made you start the chalk art projects?
- What advice do you have for me?
