I have always felt that nature is a reflection of your soul and spirit. My enchantment with birds started with the kingfisher. My portfolio contains most of the birds in NJ but this one was my first attempt at high-speed photography with a budget lens.

Nature has always been a fascination for me. Birds inspire us to soar to new heights and animals teach us to temper our spirits when faced with perceived cruelty. I hope to try and capture the harmony that exists in nature and apply it to my life. When it shows up in my work it will be for all to see.

I loved how the photo of me came out, although it was fine alone, I was tempted to make it an abstract. I love the colors and how they complement each other, happy how it came out.

Digital photography, edited with Picarts, Chroma Lab.
These edits were meant for my girlfriend, as a way to show my affection and appreciation for her. She's wonderful, caring, beautiful, bright, intelligent, and noble, and that's what I tried to capture in this art. I wanted to make her look angelic or otherworldly, like a goddess, and have her size be compared to mine, showing the scale. she looks cosmic, ancient, and wise, which I love. This is how I see her every time I'm with her.

This picture was taken on Halloween, the shadows belong to my girlfriend and me. I love putting color in dark spaces so I added an image of the sky inside the shadows and made it look colorful for it to pop out and look more abstract. The shadows are supposed to mirror how enjoyable the day turned out and even when they fade away to a new tomorrow, the memories will always follow us.

Tulips are my favorite flowers and according to history, they come originally from a love story from Turkey.

I just feel myself and it brings me peace. First I made the purple background and I need it a few months to come up with something to put on, and the final is worth it.

Painting
This painting symbolizes rebirth. As this symbol also has several meanings, to me it symbolizes rebirth with my masculine and feminine traits.

Inspired by a roman angel, I drew this piece with the eyes not filled in to give the viewer a chance to interpret a good angel or bad.

Drawing/sketching
Drawing is just one of my hobbies that I love to do. When I and drawing it makes me forget about a lot of things for the moment.

This piece is a thermal representation of the female body and is meant to appreciate, what is, divine femininity. The female body is a shrine that should be loved, adored, and appreciated especially because it is also the carrier of life.

My wife suffered a massive stroke in October of 2020. She had to have multiple brain surgeries due to a blood clot and she did not get home until the end of January 2021, after two months in hospital and two months of intensive inpatient therapy. I wrote this song for her and the video captures her journey.
