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!

Also: an art life update
