I love being both in front and behind the lens! I model on the side, but I do love taking photos as well.
I feel like capturing moments, still in time, is such a magical momentum. You are essentially capturing the world through your eyes and letting others into your vision. Other people can see the intricacies of your world, what excites you, what makes you different!
Photography means so much to so many- I got into it once I realized that life is not forever, and no one really cherishes images much until they become the only way you can see a place or a person. I started capturing important moments of my life from 2018 until now.
What do you like about photography?
​My art practice consists in the conversation that happens between painting photography as a travelling artist. The title of my works is called “The Grand Tour, a contemporary take.”. I think of myself as a contemporary impressionist. I base my practice in the act of taking images of places, people and moments, then translating those into paint. The term “Artourist” first utilised by Leonor Antunes, refers to the traveller who creates art while on their journey. I like the idea that photography can be both a means to an end, so it is the starting point of many works, although it can also a f inished product itself. Within the context of my art practice, it largely depends on the subject matter and what I am trying to portray. If the image expresses the message I want to send, it stays as a photograph. If I feel like the message is not as strong, I turn that photograph into a painting. At times, the snapshots I take are purely used as reference pictures.

Do you make any custom work?
Of course I do!
My main practice revolves around travel, landscapes and I primarily work in painting and photography mediums.
I also make pet portraits in acrylic or watercolors and various other paintings on canvas and wooden board.
I do love printmaking, so linocut and woodcut prints are always an option!
