Ian Stone
a modern realist painter
"I’ve experimented with a lot of different painting techniques, but I am naturally drawn to an alla prima approach."
NATHAN WRIGHT
a writer during his mid-life crisis
Naturally, I read a lot of plays. The ironic thing about reading plays, of course, is that they are not meant to be read. To me, the fundamental thing about a play is that a play is not something that is meant to exist on the page or in your mind, but it is something that must live in time and space. In my opinion, the best plays are the ones that can only fully function when plugged into this equation : time + space.

injury & recovery
One of my porters “says oh sh*t!” and in midair I only hope to have enough rotation that I don't land head first upside down. I end up landing back on the dry stage, missing the water, taking all the force to my face and chest. I slide unconscious into the water.
ERIC LESH
draw & sketch
I try to capture as much of the body and expression as possible in a single line. Many people talk about my work in terms of style.
CHRISTOPHER JAMES
composition master
Christopher James is the magic behind Phantasma Photography. He is an incredible photo manipulator and photographer will take you to another universe.
MIHAEL BELILOV
dancer
I think many people don’t really understand how complex and hard ballet and dance is until they try it.
JORGE OTERO
new age artist
Since he began, Ortero has always used the naked body in his work. He views it as a universal symbol: the skin that covers the bones and organs of humans everywhere.

CHRIS YOUNG
martial arts
To me, each martial art is a philosophy: a perspective on life as well as an approach to fighting. They provide different ways of understanding the world and solving problems. I bring them together in my own personal view as seems appropriate for what I am doing at any given time. Ultimately, martial arts is the lens through which I see the world.
ROBB PETERS
equestrian sport
There are differences between hunters and jumpers. Jumpers should be careful go fast and clean and execute tight turns for speed. Hunters on the other hand should go around on a rhythmical canter...
