Max Plank: Surviving the AI Wave as a Graphic Designer & Why Human Art Still Wins
55m | Mar 4, 2026What happens when you turn a series of excessive ideas (including this podcast) into a professional creative partnership? In this episode of Underrated, I sit down with my go-to designer and friend, Max Plank from "Walk the Plank Art," as he shares his journey from drawing Rugrats characters on his bedroom floor to becoming a successful self-taught digital illustrator and graphic designer.
Whether you’re interested in the "tug-of-war" dynamic between a client and a creative, the ethical landscape of AI in the art world, or the sad realization that subscriptions are bleeding us dry, Max’s perspective is a masterclass in staying authentic in a digital age.
