"Find beauty
in the
darkness"
Photography is the art of capturing the lyrical dance of simple existence. It is a vessel to immortalize love in all of its diverse and beautiful expressions.
- Raynie
Darkness cannot dispel light,
it can only define it.
Crystallizing even the soft flicker
of a lone lit candle.
But light?
Light can cast away the shadows
until the darkness is gone.
This realization alone should encourage you to shine as brightly as possible.
I will not have you without the darkness that hides within you. I will not let you have me without
the madness that makes me.
If our demons cannot dance,
neither can we.
-Nikita Gill
"There is no exquisite beauty without some strangeness"
tales. Maybe it's considered strange to find beauty in the darkness, but
I have embraced my individuality and chosen to create a world that
truly reflects who I am. I've always loved to read, delving into the
world of imagination, and losing myself in the tales spun by others. I'm
also a writer. A storyteller; Manifesting different realities with a pen, and
an idea, drawn to the art of creation. When photography came into my life,
it felt like a natural extension to my love of narrative artistry. Creating different works
of illustration and literature are what allows me to fully express my inner complexities,
balancing luminance and shadows in their eternal dance to create a messy masterpiece.
We all have our own definitions of a "masterpiece". Let me tell you mine. It's the peace I feel at the
faint sound of underlying static while listening to my favorite vintage record. The comfort of a crackling fire on a cool autumn night while I lose myself in my favorite book. The eery calm I feel on All Hallows Eve, and the ghostly days that surround it. The crinkle in my daughter's nose when she laughs at her
own jokes. The sounds of laughter and playful dinosaur noises from my two sons. All of these things are whispers of a verse, a poetic vision. Masterpiece is not perfection. It's the joy you find in your own unique life, even when it's messy. This life of mine is art in itself. My living masterpiece.
I have always said
that I'm an old soul,
living out of place
in the wrong time.
There are things
about myself that some
might consider "odd". Like
the calm I feel only in the
late hours of night, or
being drawn to the mysterious
allure of unconventional writings and
eery, horror spun tales. Maybe it's considered strange to find beauty in the darkness, but I have embraced my individuality and chosen to create
