| I've been pursuing photography and digital manipulation for close to 7 years. I've always been able to find beauty in the darker things in life.. No matter how disgusting or ugly, I've always found a way to make it beautiful. Despite what I feel is a dark, macabre beauty to these images, I am constantly met with much skepticism. Many people are skittish of the blood or the horrid reality that I display in each manipulation. I feel that I create portions of everyday real life, that most artist are afraid to touch with a ten foot pole, or that most people are aware of, but choose to block it out of their mind. But the truth is, no matter how hard you try to block these things out, these are our life. Well more of my life I should say. These are the things that come out of my head. These are the things I see, and I can't help but want to create them. |
