Point of View | Ben Wentzel

We are starting a new feature called Point of View, which will highlight a selected artist's work, along with a statement from the arsist describing his personal style and goals. We stayed close home for our first point of view, featuring the work of TLP friend and emerging photographer from PA, Ben Wentzel. See what he has to offer, and check out his personal site at benwentzel.net.

Jed Rogers | Firsthand

Jed just launched a new website for himself showcasing some of his latest and best graphic design work. Jed is also an accomplished road cyclist, BMXer, and photographer, but we focused more on his life as a designer for this interview. Check out Jed's work at jedrogersdesign.com.

Michael Sieben | View

I am by no means good friends with Michael, as much as most of the people reading this article in fact. He is by far my favorite illustrator and I am no less than honored to be able to interview him. I can't get enough of his art and I hope he keeps making it for a long time. I asked him to send stuff he wanted people to see and this is what he sent, and I'm siked on it.

Sandy Carson | View

Now I know it's not unusual for a BMX rider to pick up a camera. What is unusual is for the photos to turn out this rad, especially from such a dialed rider. Here's Sandy and his photos.

Joe Saksa | View

When I originally did this interview I didn't know Joe that well, now I do. Joe has an insight into life that any of us could wish to have at twice his age. He's easy going and well cultured. His values seem simple and well thought, and I truly believe everyone would benefit from understanding what he is about.

Steve Crandall | View

A while back I had the priveledge of interviewing Crandall about his art. Since I've gotten to know him a little better. All though he might not be as nice to me as he sounds in this interview he's as rad as he seems in his paintings.
