PHOTOGRAPHY BASED
Photography, first Love
Photography was my first love. The way light tells truth, the way moments hold emotion. Over time, it became more than a way of seeing. It became a way of remembering.These works blend photography with paint, print, and texture - where image becomes story & story becomes form.
