EARLY DAYS

Since childhood, I’ve been captivated by the act of creation, from making music to crafting imaginative worlds with Lego. As a teenager, I transformed this passion into a new medium, building skateboard ramps and learning design. As I grew older, my focus shifted towards functional art, primarily woodworking projects and furniture.

HOME DESIGN

Over time, my professional career led me towards architecture and home design, where I honed my design skills and eventually began designing and building homes.

PHOTOGRAPHY

In 2013 I discovered a new passion for photography, particularly shooting film. As I delved deeper into the craft, I began to take it more seriously, entering competitions and learning new techniques using software like Photoshop and Lightroom. I started getting some local recognition after placing in some gallery contests.

WEB 3

In 2019, I embarked on my web 3 journey, exploring the potential impact that this space could have on art. After a year of studying the space, I decided to mint my own genesis collection: Tut Genesis

My goal is to create art that sparks the imagination and evokes powerful emotions.

MY ART NOW

Currently, I’m experimenting with a process that involves creating AI images from my photos and then layering digital art elements to produce a new, cohesive artwork. This body of work centers around a central figure in a brutalist landscape, prompting viewers to explore their own existence. Through my art, I’ve come to realize that we often fail to truly explore ourselves until we’re alone with our thoughts and feelings.

This is an evolving document that will showcase my work as I experience my time as an artist.

I hope you have enjoyed learning a bit more about me and how I became an artist.
