In 1998, Muth founded THE AUGUST COMPANY, an organization to provide for development in the arts, which has produced a critically acclaimed world premiere CD and published the work of several new writers. For BBC educational television, in 1991, he created a short graphic story, SHARIF AUGUSTUS, for which he also produced the music and narrated.

In 1995, he created IMAGINARY MAGNITUDE, a surreal comic strip based on his relationship with his son, Nikolai. This ran in Japan for 3 years in the manga-magazine AFTERNOON and led him to concentrate his current llustration work in the area of children's books, where he has garnered international acclaim and various awards of merit. Currently he lives in upstate New York, chasing the clouds from his brushes with his wife Bonnie and his children, Nikolai and Adelaine. Social/Sharing |
