ALTHÉE "Showing what we can't see, or showing it differently", this is one of my mottos. I often know before pressing the button that my goal is not to show what the eye can see. That's why I like playing with depth of field, or with blur effects.

The first work explores the relation of a modern human with technology, we are consumers with bad eating habits. It is so easy to become addicted to all of our gadgets and wires. The second one is also connected to our everyday life when we want to creep out of our own self due anxieties, depression and other conditions that are part of this modern, fast world.

Chris Max Photography for me is more than just taking photos, it is what keeps me sane, creative and grounded. I incorporate what I feel into what I see and capture it. Taking photos for me is not just clicking that shutter button but letting your eye feel what you see. Everyday is an adventure and you should not miss any of it. Â JAAMZIN CREATIVE | 8

Before that, he found his footing in beach photography growing up in South Florida. Much of his work is isolated subjects in a sea of muted blues and off-whites. The photos contain a calming sense of longing for solitude with an inherited acceptance of the paradise around them.

After the iPhone 7 campaign, Laurence invested in a Sony digital camera but continues to shoot with both cameras interchangeably. In 2017, Laurence won the Street Photography category in the Mobile Photography Awards.

PAINTING
KA’ROSE
Long ago when I attended 7th grade I discovered a hidden talent and that was the deep love for ART. Drawing, coloring, colors, painting, always amazed me and I would enter into a different world. The world I love to escape to and express how I feel without saying a word. 8th grade my art piece was in a museum in Florida and the start of my 11th grade year I started my journey to becoming a artist. I love my work of art and sharing it with you/the world is my dream. I Am Ka’Rose.

World’s Most Expensive Artwork Launched as the Globe’s First self-pricing Crypto-Artwork World’s Most Expensive Artwork, an artwork made by the freelance artist and illustrator Frederik F. Mettjes, launched as the very first of its kind crypto-artwork of the planet. The artwork is programmed by the blockchain-based ‘smart contract’ algorithms to be costlier than any other artworks in the globe. We have conducted an interview with Frederik.

What challenges are in store for you in this field? How do you intend to cope with these? I think there are more opportunities than challenges. Ultimately, this is a social question of how we want to deal with digitization and in which areas the influence of technology and the merging with art and culture takes place - the digitization and perhaps the blockchain will take a lot of work, but certainly not the creative act.

How did you come to journalism and writing? I am originally from Russia where I worked as a television journalist for a few years. I covered social and cultural events happening in our city. When 16 years ago I came to the USA, I had to go back to school and study English. I also had to give up on being a journalist in this country. At least, that was how I first felt. I tried many different jobs, got 2 more degrees (my first degree is in teaching music in elementary and middle school in Russia), but finally I came back to journalism. I love every day of my life now because I do what I like to do. Also, as a former musician, I love writing about classical music events and attending them. I get a lot of energy from these concerts! Classical music is very powerful, I believe it's coming from somewhere in the Universe. We all should use the great energy that classical music provides us. Plus, it has a healing power. Why not use it while enjoying the magnificent sounds of music?Â
JAAMZIN CREATIVE | 36
Just imagine - someone who lived two, three hundred years ago composed something, the person died, but their music keeps pleasing people, keeps making them happy. Isn't it amazing? In this country, I started writing 5 years ago when I contributed my first article that was called "A World Premiere Comes to Naperville" to the websites of Chicago Tribune and Patch. I still remember that day. It was an article about the Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir that performed at Ss. Peter and Paul Catholic Church here, in Naperville, as part of Concerts at Ss. Peter and Paul. Since then, I have written tons of articles about various cultural events in the Chicago area. I contributed my articles to the website of Chicago Tribune for almost 4 years, and I am still contributing my articles to Patch. Since 2016, I have been contributing my articles to the website of Daily Herald. I also have my own website where I post my articles: https://nataliadagenhart.wixsite.com/website

So, you said that you contribute your articles. Does it mean that you are getting paid by newspapers? No. I am not their staff member, so usually I don't get paid by the newspapers. On a few occasions, I have written articles as a freelance writer and have been paid by a newspaper. Sometimes I also get paid by creative individuals who want me to write about them. Oftentimes big, world-renowned companies invite me to their events and want me to write for them. They do that because they like the way I present their events in my writings. It helps me to promote my name and my brand and demonstrate my skills and unique writing style. I think outside of the box. The way I write catches attention, and I know how to do that. Each article is a puzzle for me; I just have to put all the parts together in the right way.
JAAMZIN CREATIVE | 38
I love to use quotes in my articles because I believe that nothing can beat the wisdom of great people. I love studying the circumstances in which composers wrote their music, for example, because I want to feel what they felt and want to know what they went through when they composed this or that piece. At the moment, I enjoy being my own boss, having my own schedule and writing without any instructions from anyone. However, if someday there would be an organization that would love the way I write and would let me work for them while still preserving my individual style of writing and give me freedom to do that, I would gladly accept their offer. Meanwhile, I enjoy writing and am looking for more ways to make my work more profitable. I keep my eyes and ears open to any new opportunities and possibilities.
What else do you do? We found out you are also an award-winning artist and a songwriter. Also, is it true that you participated in the Mrs. Illinois pageant a few years ago? Yes, I am a self-taught artist. I started painting in December 2012. I paint with acrylics. I started with abstract, and that is what I did for the first couple of years. However,Â
I am very interested in painting faces. I love to observe people, their emotions, character and personality. It attracts me as an artist. Every little move, muscle of the face, wrinkle - you name it! – tells the whole life story of the person, and I love showing it with paints. I forget to eat when I paint. Thank God, I always have a bottle of water next to me and at least drink. I turn on classical music when I paint; it gives me energy. I choose music depending on what I am painting; each piece carries different energy - sometimes it is sad, sometimes victorious, sometimes thoughtful.
