An exclusive first-hand interview with Joey Miller,  a.k.a. Joey the Photographer, who is a fine art photographer that speaks volumes about the messages he sends through his work, that focuses mainly on isolation and mental health. Joey and I discuss his strong and meticulous use of color theory in his photography, drug addiction, mental health (including his first-hand experience with bpd disorder), and international traveling. He is based in Chicago, Illinois, and originates from Indiana. He takes his work more seriously than anyone you'll meet in the game, where perfection is not an option, but a guarantee. He had his start as an intern at the Snite Museum of Art at the University of Notre Dame, and is now being studied around the world in photography classes, while also being present in many art collector's collections in the world! He is making strides every day, and he will only be getting better with time. 

*TRIGGER WARNING on the discussion of mental health and drug addiction personal stories*

Tim Kaupp is a 3D artist based in Germany, working at a marketing agency! He has a  character portfolio from the past couple years that caters to the unusual creatures you stumble upon in a video game. His work is very detailed and screams "Software" developer to me, personally.  We talk about his inspiration from other artists, games, and where he plans to go with this new style of work he's mastering. You can check him out at the following links! :

Bruce and I discuss his new transition from strictly photography, to his now mixed-media work. As a NYC artist, the hustle is embodied within him and his work, and you'll always catch Bruce on the streets, talking to new people everyday! Currently in Colorado due to the pandemic, we take some time to reflect on the joys of New York before it was on lockdown, and also what's to come in his next adventures!

Rolands, also known as @mr.rolazy on IG, is a Freelance Graphic Designer & 3D Artist. This man has a portfolio that'll blow your mind, and we dive into the mind of this sci-fi fanatic, and talk about how he went from pursuing a full-time graphic design career, and then later being forced into freelance due to COVID-19 measures. There's even a bonus segment for any fellow gamers out there, who wish to vent their frustration or enjoyment when talking about CyberPunk 2077.

Cody's work is intense and super intricate. His line work leaves no space to breathe, with every drawing leading you to the next, with no real context of what's to come. Each new drawing speaks to many avenues concerning propaganda, human existence, and the limitations put upon by the figment of time.
