ROB BRYAN SEIZES THE DAY

HE DAY

WE DECIDED TO START THE NEW YEAR WITH SOME NEW FACES. EARLIER YOU MET RISHI IDNANI, WHO ISN'T EXACTLY THE NEW BUT STILL NOT AS WILD SPREAD AS MANY OTHER MALE MODELS. AND TODAY WE PRESENT YOU ANOTHER FRESH FACE – AND BODY – WHO, WE BELIEVE, AS A GOLDEN FUTURE IN FRONT OF HIM.

Robert Bryan Diaz was born in the beautiful country of Costa Rica and raised in sunny Miami. If you would dig deeper in his DNA, you will find clear traces of a Cuban ancestry as well. Having so much sun in your genes, it almost can not be otherwise than going through life with a constant smile on your face. And that is exactly what Robert does. Not that he takes anything for granted. Oh no, Robert Bryan is a hard working, motivated young man, with dreams of a future, with modesty and with the attitude of living life to its fullest, like there is no tomorrow. Rob Bryan seizes the day.

Devoted and affectionate to those he cares about, he loves to show his feelings by doing instead of talking. "Words are taken by the wind, action speak louder than words," he explains with a smile. "I always try to maintain a set values and a standard of morality that is needed by every human being and especially by anyone in the limelight so that I may continue to be a positive role model for my community and the youth that looks up to or may look up to me."Curious to learn more about Robert Bryan, we asked him a few questions.

Robert, welcome to BeautifulMag. Can you please introduce yourself to our readers?
Robert: Well, I was raised in Miami, but now live in Tampa, Florida. I still visit Miami quite often since my whole family lives there. I love to spend time with my family and friends. I graduated with honors from Miami Dade College with my Associates in International Business. I am currently attending The University of South Florida and have three semesters left to complete my Bachelors in Accounting. I have been modeling for about 2 years. Finally for those who are interested ☺ My measurements are 5'11 height, 30 waist, 39 chest, 36 hips, 30 inseam.

What does modeling give you, and where would you like it to lead?
Robert: Allowing me to travel the world while doing something I have a strong passion for and truly love, which is modeling. I also love acting, I was a member of the International Thespian Honor Society in high school and performed in several school plays. I am constantly auditioning for numerous commercials throughout Florida and I am hoping to one day be hired for a big movie role and be featured in cinemas across the country.

Sounds like a plan Robert. So let's look at the future. Where do you see yourself 5 years from now ?
Robert: Hopefully reaching new heights in my career like being the model on billboards in large cities like New York Miami and LA and internationally.  While modeling and acting I want to be a positive role model and in doing so I would like to eventually run my own YMCA type of school because I love kids, and by then I will be able to give back. 

Who are your role models in life?
Robert: I idolize(or admire) my parents, they are the most hard working human beings I have ever met. I know it has not always been easy and have sacrificed so much to give myself and my older sister a good life. I am so appreciative to have them as my parents, they are my role models!

Finally, any information about yourself that you would like our readers to know?
Robert: I would like everyone to know that dreams can be made possible. By planning your goals, being determined and confident in yourself you can do anything your heart desires. I never in a million years thought I would ever have a career as a model. Please take my success as proof that anything is possible and always believe in yourself. –B-

A PIECE OF ART CALLED DENNIS GONZALEZ

WE CAN ALL AGREE ON, IS THAT ART IS VERY SUBJECTIVE. ART IS ALL ABOUT EXPRESSING AND COMMUNICATING EMOTIONS AND IDEAS, BUT NOT EVERYBODY LIKES THE SAME IDEAS OR IS SUSCEPTIBLE FOR THE SAME EMOTIONS. SO WHEN SOMEONE STANDS UP AND CREATES ART THAT PRETTY MUCH EVERYBODY LIKES AND ADMIRES, WE CAN TRULY SPEAK OF ART. 

Some of the greatest artists in the world were sculptors. Personally I believe it requires quite some talent and vision to be able to transform a piece of wood, stone, clay or metal into a representation of a human body. To be able to look at a block of marble but see a beautiful human shape, and actually manage to cut it free… it must be a marvelous satisfaction. But do you really need those materials to work with? Not according to Dennis Gonzalez.

When Dennis Javier Gonzalez was young, he didn't exactly look the way he does today. Dennis is an artist and got his vision at the age of 18, when he decided he wanted to join the military. Dennis applied but was rejected because he was overweight. Really overweight. His military recruiter gave him a diet plan and told him to start exercising, an advise Dennis took to his heart. 9 Months later, Dennis Gonzalez lost almost 90lbs and go his vision.

Like a sculptor, Dennis began to see a beautiful shape hidden in the raw material. He realized all he had to do was patiently work on it. And so he carved and chiselled, he modeled and constructed. As any artist, the process of creation didn't go without making mistakes. But now, at the age of 30, after a few ups and downs, Dennis has created his vision of perfection. A well sculpted, strong muscled physique.

Bodybuilding and dieting have brought Dennis to the point where he is today. They have become his passion on the way to perfection, and will always be his means to maintain and improve. The military is no longer an option for Dennis, but his search to perfection and a healthier lifestyle has opened other doors for this beautiful man from a small Texan coastal town on the Gulf of Mexico . Dennis has entered the world of modeling. He has started to make name for himself in the area of fitness modeling, and already photographers are lining up to work with this new face – and body – on the scene. Jeff Brewster was one of the lucky ones to have had the opportunity to have this example of pure masculinity and raw beauty in front of his camera. Dennis Gonzalez has found the place he always wanted to be. Through knowledge, hard work and will power. -B-

MODEL| Maxwell Zagorski

Maxwell Zagorski – 22-year-old Adonis was born in Florida and moved around that state before settling to East Manatee. There, he attended Lakewood Ranch High and played on the basketball team. In between classes, he did small-time modeling work for local businesses. Then his big break came, when Abercrombie & Fitch came calling. Things then steamrolled to other lucrative jobs including Levi's and Gilt.com (one of my favorite sites). Zagorski is now trying to break into acting. Hopefully his guest spot on "One Life To Live" will lead to bigger and better roles.
