Become an Official Member of the Dark Art Society! https://www.patreon.com/DarkArtSociety This week my good friend and amazing artist Ryan K. Peterson discuss the history of makeup effects! Special thanks goes out to @scumchoir for the suggestion. We chat about how we became interested in makeup effects as kids and then discuss our nerdy knowledge of makeup effects starting from the early days of horror film makeup of Lon Chaney in the 1920's, Jack Pierce (and others) in the 1930's, the advent of foam latex appliances, and the many innovations of the godfather of modern makeup effects, Dick Smith up through the 1970's and more. This is part 1 of two episodes on the history of makeup effects! Part 2 will be next week! Also, a quick life update.

This week I talk to Australian artist John Chen! We talk about him being born in Taiwan and emigrating to Australia, being a lifelong weightlifter, going to school to learn digital animation and FX, building career in digital FX production and his eventual disillusionment, finally settling into a career as a fine art creature creator and lots more! Great conversation with an OG member of the Dark Art Society and great artist!
