In 2015, Gareth “Garth” Garlend was created by Adam Leon. It began with a doodle of a dinosaur named Garth and has since grown into 50+ works that aim to recreate and celebrate the kind of drawings once made on grade school notebook paper. Adam knows there has never been a better time in history to turn imagination into something real. That awareness sparked a drive to explore all the modern ways we can make ideas tangible—and to share what he’s learned so others can do the same.
