Most of the photographs in my gallery were taken in the spur of the moment. This means that most are candid, even if they may not seem that way.

I only keep the photos that have a specific meaning and I thank everyone in them for helping me discover it, even if those involved were unaware.

My traditional art is somewhat spontaneous. Inspiration strikes me at different times, though sometimes I manage to inspire myself, if it is a commission.

I work on each traditional piece until there is nothing I want to change about it, and only then do I comfortably make them public, or open to suggestions.

I hope my gallery will impact you in a way nothing else could.
