Finding Amy
The camera is my canvas and the world is my color palette. The world is my inspiration and my works are a portal to share my passion. I am an enthusiastic graphic and web designer who enjoys recording the best of this world via drawing and traveling. However, a creative cannot be a creative without the appreciation for their tools and thus, based on that philosophy, I learned the arcane art of working with computer hardware and building systems from scratch.
