Photograph in black & white, 945 x 1245
My artistic vision stems from my childhood, immersed in all things imaginative. It’s always involved storytelling through visual and written mediums. I’ve explored photography, case studies, and my own art projects. I aspire to be a photojournalist to blend my two hobbies, while also wanting to create illustrations and share my writings through novels as a side career. This submission and feature have given me the courage to pursue my passions further. To all creatives, take action; you never know where it will lead you.
