The fantastical imagery includes lions, dragons, skulls and owls ("since before all the owl hype," as Gabe says). Working non-stop in his small kitchen in Brooklyn, this Hungarian-born artist is driven to be the best at whatever he does and to push the boundaries (maybe this comes in part from growing up under Communism?). But his passion and ambition hasn't made Gabe lose sight of his humble beginnings. We were very inspired to meet the maker behind <a href="http://1AEON.etsy.com">1AEON</a> and hear his story. </p> <p><em> Watch our other <a href="http://www.etsy.com/storque/search/tags/handmade-video-portraits/">Handmade Video Portraits</a> and make sure to subscribe to our <a href="http://www.youtube.com/etsy">YouTube Channel</a> and <a href="http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=274681115">Subscribe in iTunes</a></em><em>.&nbsp; <br /><br />If you're interested in all things Hungarian, check out this <a href="http://www.etsy.com/storque/section/thisHandmadeLife/article/etsy-world-tour-hungary-where-traditional-and-contemporary-c/1761/">post</a> on traditional and contemporary Hungarian crafts. </em></p>
