Fazzino takes a renaissance–like approach to the time-consuming
details involved in his work. It’s an approach that many others don’t
have the patience or motivation to pursue. The artists’ success took

parent may have been able to offer advice or encouragement about
succeeding in the world of nursing or computers.
