I never considered myself an artist.That is until 2018. I had confidence in my creations. I believed in myself and I have since then been featured in artist exhibitions and competitions. I took art classes and learned from it. I fell in love with charcoal. Chiaroscuro is what inspires me. I like getting my hands dirty. I am a self taught photographer. I like editing photos as much as taking them. Surrealistic photo manipulation is what I am good at. I like seeing things in a different view. It is interesting seeing art from a photographer’s perspective. I am always trying to get the perfect composition. As an artist I am connected to the human experience. I believe that I can convey emotions in my art and photography. Although some may argue that photography isn’t art; I would gladly prove them wrong.
