    " In early 2020, Danny Cortes was unemployed and on probation. But by the following year, he’d turned a pandemic hobby into a full-time career, and today, his artwork sells for as much as $25,000 a piece. Cortes **creates tiny, hyper realistic scenes of New York City circa the early ’90s**. Featuring rusty mailboxes and newspaper dispensers replete with graffiti, his miniatures capture the essence of the era he grew up in. And he wants his story to provide hope for others: “It’s never too late. You can have all these negativities around you and dark times and mental health,” he tells Nice News, adding: **“Just believe in yourself because I’m proof.”**",
