Photography – Ventura

I\'ve always used creativity as an outlet for emotional expression. I majored in art for a semester or two, but never graduated. Life was in session and I went where it took me. A lot of those places were dark...if I took a snapshot, it wouldn\'t have been anything I would have wanted my parents to see. Fast forward... those dark times and moments are serving a purpose. I have chosen to recreate them, as I have recreated myself in my series Self-Centered. I play each character in every photo.
