From MOnTaNA

From Montana: A Coming of Middle Age Story is a humorous, brutally honest autobiographical account of Garth Gerhart, a 40-something, rule-abiding family man, who finds himself struggling with a past he can’t face, a present he can’t stand and a future he can’t imagine.

When his estranged father dies, Garth's battle with regret, fear and anger take him down a dark path as he reluctantly returns to Montana to lay his father, and his past, to rest.

Along his journey, Garth discovers truths he’d never known and a family he’d never met. As he gets further from the safe harbor of his former life, he must venture to unexplored places within himself to find his way home.

Yes, My name REALLY is Garth Gerhart...

I am a professional graphic/web designer with an alias-sounding, alter-ego superhero name. I can't see through walls, but I do over 20 years of experience that brings my client's vision in to a viable and marketable product. Or, in layman's terms - I make them look super.

I am also a seasoned illustrator, who is most notably known for my decade's work in the pages of Mad Magazine with my original comic, "Bitterman".

Lately, I have been more into dissecting what it means to be creative through the sharing of the human experience with thoughtful and poignant analysis. In layman's terms - I am trying to be a writer.

From unique, personal custom illustrations to large corporate trade shows, My work expands through various mediums and defines identities with consistent branding and ecclectic appeal.
