In the vast canvas of life, curiosity is the brushstroke that adds vibrancy and depth to our existence. Reflecting on my own journey, I’ve come to appreciate the profound importance of following our curiosity, both in navigating life’s twists and turns and in expressing ourselves through the medium of art. Life, much like a captivating…

Starting out…
It is truly fitting to start the year with this year. Although I am yet to give it a name, it’s an image 7 years in the making. Allow me to explain. I vividly remember capturing this image as soon as the scene was presented to me. At the same time, I had envisioned a…
Unexpected Lessons
They are many reasons why I would never claim to be a patient person. I find myself losing interest mid-conversations and very often when watching movies. This particular personality flaw has not been aided in any shape or form in this digital age. I get frustrated when my computer slows down or when my phone…
Patterns and Geometry
As as I am drawn to create more minimal sometime abstract images, I can’t but be captivated by patterns. Patterns not in the usual way. Patterns are all around us. They are an innate parts of most art mediums. Our ability to recognise patterns is a baseline skill for the human eye. It is a…

Minimal Gear For My architectural Photography
After purchasing my first DSLR, I distinctively remember being very excited and my choice. Since my aim was to learn, I purchased every magazine out there that had a “How To……………” on the cover. Inside every one of these magazines, I found a new camera or new lens review, a camera comparison and with all…
Learning to see beyond the obvious
Ever since I was a child, I’d always have a book in hand. My earliest memory of books was of my grand mother reading to me at bedtime and teaching me to read when I was about 4 years old. I still remember fondly the many folktales that read to me and as an adult,…
