He said it: "As an artist myself, I live by the PensEyeView. I love meeting people from all over the globe and sharing their talents with the world. There is never a shortage of creative minds and PensEyeView is proof of that."

Bio: Believing that everything starts with a pen, paper and a vision, Richie Frieman launched PensEyeView.com on April 1, 2007. The day was a culmination of plenty of hard work, "It was a lot of sleepless nights...too many to count," recalls Frieman. "I would constantly wake up in the middle of the night with an idea or concept to make the magazine better."

Since those first sleepless nights, Frieman has spoken to some of the greatest artists in our culture today; Singers, songwriters, painters, sculptors, fashion designers and visionaries of all kinds. "I am fascinated by people's stories, and that is what I want PensEyeView to showcase. Imagine what it would have been like to sit down for a beer with the Beatles when they were just four hopeful young chaps in England...That is what I want people to feel when they read our interviews."

Aside from PensEyeView.com, Richie is also a children's book artist and illustrator, with his first written and illustrated book, "Terple"- about a courageous turtle who dreams of life outside of the pond, due out in mid January of 2008, off Amazon.com. Richie also has four other books scheduled for release in 2008 on a series based upon his original characters Jake and his best friend-his dog, Camden. As well, one more educational book he will illustrate and write for Flipping For Phonics (due out, winter 2008). As an artist, Richie has created two public works of art in Maryland in the past two years. And in 2000, a life-long dream for Richie and Kenny Harmon (PensEyeView.com-Director of Communications) came true: They made their debut as professional wrestlers. The two have won dozens of tag team championships, in the U.S. over the past seven years, as Richie - "The Thrill From Israel" Buster Maccabi and Kenny - Apollo Cruz, together they were called Xtreme Pandemonium. Frieman also garnering three singles titles along the way. Frieman received his B.S. from the University of Maryland, College Park in 2001.
