Monday Sep 18, 2017
Monday Sep 18, 2017
John Conroy is a professional model and photographer who has spent an entire career building a portfolio that’s as impressive as they come. From being on the cover of Men’s Heath, to working for top brands such as Calvin Klein, Versace and Ralph Lauren, John is the consummate model, whose face you’ve likely seen on the cover of a magazine, inside a catalogue or even greeting you in Vegas as Thor’s Hammer or Jupiter, two popular slot machines. Today, John continues to thrive as a model, but has also perfected the art of photography, taking brilliant photos for top celebrities, as well as up-and-coming models. I learned a great deal from John about his craft and I’m looking forward to sharing his incredible story with you.

Friday Aug 18, 2017
Friday Aug 18, 2017
Welcome to the debut episode of American Real. Today's guest is world renowned artist, Anthony Brunelli, whose amazing talent puts him as one of the most sought after artists in the genre of Photorealism. He’s represented by the Louis K. Meisel Gallery in SOHO (New York) and his work has taken him all over the world, where he’s captured incredible panorama scenes from cities on multiple continents. He’s also the owner of Anthony Brunelli Fine Arts, a gallery in Upstate New York. Brunelli's energy is infectious and there's certainly no mistake why he’s the first guest on American Real. Our discussion goes far deeper than the layers of paint on his canvas, as he’s a living example of how our thoughts shape our lives… and are as important, as our actions. To see more of his work go to AnthonyBrunelli.com.
