M
ichael Mangano was a video
game artist and Art Director for
over 20 years, but the many nights
he spent sleeping under his desk to make
sure a game got out in time burned him out.
Michael followed a new passion, which
was photography, but he didn't want to be
one of those basic portrait photographers.
One day he took a photo of his best friend
and manipulated it in Photoshop so it
looked like she was in a fantasy world, and
thus started his career as a fantasy artist.
Michael is working with a costume shop
now so he can let anyone be whatever they
want to be, anywhere they can imagine.
The only limitation Michael says he has is
his own imagination.
