Loved how he’s relatable! The huge sell if his painting doesn’t seem to have changed him or made him arrogant. Seems like a very down to earth guy.

The genuine nature of the way Mark speaks on all sorts of topics is refreshing and inspiring. Thank you for the interview to both of you!

Both artists are legends

Listening to Mark describe his journey is super inspiring and makes me want to work harder, too. Thanks Andrew for bringing this to us.

I really appreciated the honestly from Mark and from you Andrew. Mark’s take on AI rings true… people still want human connection and artists want the process. Thank’s once again Andrew

Andrew thank you for doing this podcast, you introduced us to Mark in your first podcast with him and I have been following his progress, and so doing this follow up was amazing thank you man❤️

You two are very talented I like the emotion you create in your works and absolutely love golden hour !

I love how honest Mark is about his journey as an artist. His analogy of follow the money, the work, or the quality is something all of us struggle as an artist. Thank you Andrew Tischler for this amazing interview of an amazing person.

Great interview❤ I'm so happy for Mark Maggiori and his success! It gives hope for many artists... keep painting !

First l admire your generosity of spirit to acknowledge and appreciate another artist's gift. To hear the journey of both of you gives so much insight into artistic searching. Thanks to making beauty to feed our souls!😊

I really enjoyed this conversation with Mark and yourself. Not just about the painting but exploring the elements within human connection. Just as your interview explains those things that make being human intriguing and difficult with so many different layers. Yes, we need to show up and be present in the moment, that in itself sets the stage for many possibilities but the one opportunity to enjoy the space, to know we can make those decisions to focus on that one task like I am with exploring lots of ways to paint sea foam hitting the beach, some days I just paint over the top and start again but I learn from what I did before, I don't get lost in the time lost or method of not achieving the look I want. It's as your conversation leads to, those things that make painting meaningful, that measure of success. We're so thankful that we have people like yourself Andrew, that is offering your knowledge to many people and though you are successful as an artist applying yourself in this modern age, your giving back while also adding a wonderful human perspective to it all. Being able to communicate through art is super great, but stepping out beyond the easel and being real can be very difficult, yet it helps us grow as people which definitely must help our own attitude towards life and how we show up as ourselves. Being human is a blessing and a beautiful thing, being able to celebrate that in whatever we do has so many rewards, even in the challenging and tribulations there is ways to change, to adapt and to explore. Survival is that one answer of 'YES I WILL OR NO I WONT, AND NO MATTER WHAT, IM GOING TO BE OK'. Many blessings and keep going well. Love the Tisch daggers by the way, interesting to hear about Mark's brushes and process, awesome human being with knowledge and growth through adversity.

First off, thank you Andrew for doing a show with Mark and polling user questions to ask him. As an oil painter myself, I'm deeply in love with Mark's work (especially the use of luminiousity and contrast). I've always loved hearing other artists speak about their process and seeing that process and how it informs the work. Great job on the interview, I'll be checking out the videos.

I really love how Mark responds, very up straight, a real educator❤ So glad I got to watch this, 1hour felt like 30minutes cos I wished it didn't have to end.. Thanks for putting this up Andrew👏🏽 you're a blessing!❤

Thanks for making this happen, loved hearing from Mark and having a window into his creative process and thinking.

Thank you Andrew, for sharing and doing this interview or talk with Mark... straight from the heart n soul of the man... the human connection to our art :)

Love these podcasts, glad you were able to pick them up again. Thank you.

My two favorite artists in the same podcast! Thank you for this phenomenal interview!

Some big goodhearted chat here, and art was just the ríght medium to convey it. Awesome.

Thoroughly enjoyed this video presentation Andrew! I’ve always loved your work and had recently discovered Mark’s work and his vivid portrayal of the west. You can feel the passion in his subjects and color variations. It is inspiring and that pushes all artists to become better! Thanks!

Awesome interview! Thanks to both of you! ❤

My thought on ai. As someone who knows the baseline of how ai works and as an artist myself, as it is rn. I think it’s a totally unethical. Ai takes in images and mashes them together to make “new” things. Algorithms don’t take inspiration. They don’t take in human emotion. They do what they’re told in code and spit out mashed up and usually ugly or very smoothed in images. And it’s unethical cause it is stealing. Ai databases get filled without permission, actual artists work and then mash up with others to make an image. No matter how someone tries to spin it, it’s not inspiration or reference. It’s just plain stealing. Plus most artists make art to express themselves. To me real artists do it to express and put their passion into. People who want cheap knockoffs in 5 minutes, aren’t artists. They’re consumers who don’t want to pay for skill. Or tech bros to make money off of real work.

I like the way he's not about the money. A lot of painters are all about how much they get for a painting. They measure success by the amount they get. I never put my price up in 25 years. Because I love to paint for the average person who appreciates the art soooo much more than the rich. The rich just buy them because they can. Usually means nothing to them. When you put a painting in an average persons house they are talking about that art for there rest of their life. They treasure it like it's the best thing they ever had. Iv made many people cry with paintings Iv done for them, many people, but never a wealthy person.

I found this interview so inspiring and this man is so interesting and candid. I could listen to him for hours. Us artists are introverts and big worriers and we use art to erase our worries.

Another greatly introspective interview, full of inspiration and solid information from both of you, Andrew. The wrap up regarding the meaning of success was meaningful to me, a reminder to show up and do the work as best possible, instead of stressing about details and future. As you said, dream big and focus on the day.

I love to hear how Photoshop is just accepted now in this conversation. Yet I am old enough to recall when Photoshop was viewed just like AI is viewed now.

We don't need AI, we need each other.

Both individuals are quality men. Very inspirational.

Thank you so much for posting this talk/interview

Been following Mark from his Nu Metal band Pleymo. He became such a professional painter!

You both inspire me. Thanks, wonderful.

This dude is awesome! Such a solid point about the movies and why you need the human connection. This was a classic conversation, thanks brother andrew!

thanks for all your content, Andrew! You always have something to inspire me to continue working!

Thanks cuz so inspiring. I've wanted to listen to Mark talk for a while now and it is great to dive into his brain.

Such an inspiring interview that will motivate me to work even harder in painting! Thanks Andrew and Mark!

You are both incredible artists. You helped me more than any other artist out there. Your videos have been invaluable to my journey as a painter.

I am so dead I discovered your Chanel, Andrew. It was a great pleasure listening to the two of you, and I will continue to watch you from now on. ❤❤❤

wonderfull interveiw Andrew ,thank you xx

Thank you guys for that talk, that was very inspiring. Looking after Mark's band since I was a boy and when he showed up with his paintings I got my eyes full of wonder. Im in the beginning of the way and every single word from such a talented guys as you means much for me. Thanks for what you are doing, being yourself, guiding us with the light of your own example. Much respect!

This is really cool conversation. I was a gallery owner years ago, and now I am a painter, and it's such a process. Thank you...

Thanks Andrew and Mark. A fabulous listen while painting. Extraordinary work🤗💓

Thank you guys for this terrific podcast. I am so impressed with Mark as an artist, and a person and can’t believe what he has achieved in the last 8 to 10 years. His courage to pursue his happiness is truly inspiring.

Andrew. Please keep doing these podcasts? Thank you. They are a sort of "recharge/reset/power-up" for me.

i found him randomly on Instagram and fell in love with his art. i got me a "sonoran magnetism" painting in my room now and i absolutely love it!

Thank you for being you Andrew! You're a, for real,!. So do appreciate your honesty, and your unselfishness! You're so very talented and I believe an excellent father, and not ashamed of it! You're my kind of guy! Love love love your work I don't believe there's anything in this world that you can't paint.

i love that just about all artists have such good hearts

Such an insightful interview. Loved this so much!

Loved this! Very encouraging!

Great interview Andrew; lots of thoughtful responses an earnest questions answered.

Outstanding interview. Thank you

I'll admit I have had some doubts about my painting lately. But to hear Mark went through similar things, at the same age, really motivates me. Thank's so much Andrew.

I honestly loved this interview!!

"A.I. -it's like getting someone to eat your food for you!" - Love it! Loved the podcast too. Thanks Andrew and Mark!

I have seen his work before. It stuck to me. Great to see a name and a face to such tough of class art!

Andrew, your interviews are always so interesting and well presented. Thank you so much for sharing!

Such a great interview! 🤌

So informative and humbling. Thank you.

Fantastic!

Thank you for this learning experience, and I'm happy this not another exploitive on American Indian arts, but as an artist who feels and sees as one should to create.

Wow,,, what an interview ,,, Thank you Andrew for doing these ,,, Mark is such a down to earth guy an amazing skilled painter,,, thanks

An amazing interview. I really enjoyed watching it. Both of you are absolutely incredible artists. ❤❤

Amazing interview Andrew!

So enjoyed this video thanks you Andrew

AMAZING :))))) Really feel inspired!!!

Great podcast, very inspiring!!

I really enjoyed listening to this. Very informative & interesting insights shared. Wonderful art! Thanks Andrew & Mark!👍❤

Great interview!!!

What an excellent podcast!! Thank you!! Thank you!! Congrats to Mark and his path. I don't in know how to use paint on my canvas, I use all kinds of leather. I have learned so much from Andrew's videos. I look forward to following Mark, too! No fear of IA.

Aah I started following Mark's work around the same time I started following you! Wonderful to see you both chatting. Both incredible artists✨

Excellent conversation! So important, so interesting. Thank you Andrew for sharing this.

Success is getting better at your craft. What an awesome definition!

Beyond inspiring. Thank you for this!

WOW!!! What an amazing listen. As someone who also works alone making art I found the discussion about it extremely entertaining :)

i am watching your videos everytime i learned a lot from you GOD bless you

I always forget he was in a band. When I heard him speak I was like...oh yeah. Such a great painter!!

Thanks man for this video. Love both of you. On AI- personally, my biggest concern as a painter is painting, and even if a robot can paint a Rembrandt one day, it doesn't take away my opportunity to go out and paint a Hughey (me). I completely 100% agree with Mark. It's about pushing yourself to be a great painter with a desire to achieve excellent quality. And the beauty of art is quality can be different for each artist, the attributes of a work that are important to the artist are unique to the artist. That's a matter of the soul, very human and very special. Thanks for doing what you do, it's good for my soul. And thanks to Mark for sharing his insights. 😊❤

amazing interview!

Thanks Tische that was very relatable. Great to see two artists hashing it out that can relate to each other.😊

Thank You Andrew for this podcast with Mark Maggiori. It was so wonderfully down to earth and real. I admire you both so much. And you are definitely as good as Mark. Don’t you worry. You are absolutely fabulous . I love both of your work because I know that both of you put your hearts in it. This is what I am doing too when I paint. Though I m far away from your quality. Thank you. I wish you and your family only the best.

What a treat to hear you two brilliant painters. I felt like a fly on a wall!

I meant to say: I am so glad I discovered your Chanel.

Good interview. Lots of information. Andrew kept the discussion moving. It sounded like a conversation between friends instead of a news report.

❤ great interview .

Great Interview and loved the discussion on AI. Well thought out.

Got to watch his talk prior to his auction event. Very interesting journey.

Very interesting! Would love to learn more about his printing buisness though... hope he'll be a guest on the podcast again!😊

Andrew you are an amazing individual. You never cease to amaze me with your unselfishness.❤ and of course you're beautiful paintings ❤ thank you so much for your tutorials sharing your knowledge and abilities you're such a talented person❤ love your personality. Your pleasure to watch God bless you, yours and your career.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ God bless you man❤

I really enjoyed this interview and was so impressed with the openness and honesty of both artists. My takeaway? Make my art as good as I can get it and hope that I'm able to achieve success by choosing subjects I love to paint. God's speed Andrew

His work is gorgeous

I was reluctant to watch this, knowing that I’m a beginner artist-no shows, no fame but I’m glad I did! The question and answer about what he was exploring or trying to push I can relate to because I’m always trying to figure out what I need to do better or if there’s a different direction I want to take! Bottom line, inspiring

A highly interesting interview: the amount of effort and persistence and dedication and experience needed to become an accomplished artist..The one takeaway must be life style balance. Only you and your family can make career choice fit a successful life at the end of the day. I hope both you and Mr Maggiori will remain mindful of that reality..ED Adair

Weird! Yesterday I ordered a tube of violet gray from Blick! 😀 Love the idea of listening to audiobooks while painting!

Great interview. We’re lucky to have an original of his, which we bought about 10 years ago. We’re probably going to sell it soon; just need to find the venue.

Can't thank you enough for this podcast! Thumbs up 💯 times if I could. It helps those of us who are just starting to know where to point the ship. ❤

Marco is a true master!!!!

The two greatest in one place! 😍😍😍

Very interesting stuff!!!

Lovely ! I wish we could see him working at the atelier

wow!!! thank you it was inspiring. There is a war in Israel, causing a great deal of anger, pain, bereavement, and, above all, uncertainty. Your podcast provided a moment of sanity and optimism."

I truly enjoyed your podcast thank you for bringing the information to many of us who hope to become successful happy artists I agree with Mr MAGGIORI comments on AI we are still human and need the connection

Tisch, I just saw this and thought it was great. His style in reminiscent of Hildebrand Brothers. I am getting back into my art after a 65 year absence. As part of your academy learning almost too much to process…but: AI! I have spent two weeks looking at a plethora of AI KZfaqs and found that the tools are excellent, however there are many who have no art ability claiming to have as they solely use the AI generated images…used as a tool allows me to play with a variety of compositions, the truth is as M and you state “creative hand gives the work of art that personal connection, not the photo or computer”…blessings and happiness new year.
