ABOUT ME:
- I am an artist – by profession and with my heart and soul.
As a profession, I worked for over a decade in advertising.
Any work that’s been attributed to being an artist in the industry I have done;
visualizer, graphic designer, art director, final artist, digital imager
– just to mention some of them.
I’m working now as a freelancer, but not that much anymore.
The artist inside me lost its’ appetite in advertising and longed for something
more sensible… and so, I started this blog. 🙂
- I am fascinated by history, which added my love to travel,
which compliments my enthusiasm for photography…
and that’s just some of the things that completes my passion for life.
- I love the movies – the same way that I love the theater/Broadway musicals.
Most of the top films on my list I have seen 3-5 times in the cinema
before owning a DVD copy.
And I believe that Julia Roberts and I are one. Hahaha!
- A voracious reader, I probably have read more than a thousand stories.
I consider books to be a prized possession so I own a lot of them.
- I love poetry. I know that somewhere inside me there’s a poet who resides.
- I could listen the whole day to Maria Callas and… from time to time,
would probably sing-along too. (Good thing you don’t live with me, eh?! :))
And I like Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No. 1 to be my life’s music theme.
- I sometimes wonder why most people crave for something sweet.
I’m not fond of them and I don’t eat chocolates or cakes.
Well, I guess that’s just me. 😉
