"Crazy Mike" the Artist

Do you have to be a little crazy to be creative? Artist Mitsuhiro Miyazaki, who calls himself "Crazy Mike", thinks so. When he was young he dreamed of becoming a professional artist, but things didn't work out. He ran his own design studio for nearly 20 years until he lost everything following the global financial crisis. But he's back on his feet, living in a small studio and drawing again. Crazy Mike is even hoping to rent gallery space to show his work, convinced that, at age 74, taking risks is the only way to move forward. Watch and find out how he continues to live up to his name.
