They've got it covered
The perfect pair, the odd couple, the two best friends that anybody could have; these are just a few phrases used to describe the partnership between prominent artists, Josh Payne, and Thom Bullman, also known as the cover models of the pop takeover issue. Even though these two are seemingly opposite in every way, they came together to create a studio and a brotherhood. We got to catch up with Thom and Josh and find out how they transformed their friendship into a business and a series of pop culture Q's. The awesome images of Thom and Josh were taken by Dale Schenck, check out more from him at DaleSchenck.com
What's Inside?
Pop culture is the accumulation of the world around us including art, entertainment, comic books, politics, and fashion. In this modern world, we're essentially only seconds away from the next best thing. With that in mind, we put together this pop culture takeover addition. We believe we can break through the commercial culture because it's not about consumption, it's about depth. Inside you'll find pop-inspired pieces by Jay Joree, Lady Chain, Nick Imms, Ruben Barahona, Mashkow, and more!
