I am passionate about capturing special places off the beaten path. Mostly inspired by nature and architecture. I digitally modify my images to exaggerate their natural beauty. Artist Bio: I was born in the historical Country of Portugal, on the Island of Terceira in the Acores. I work from my studio in Brampton, Ontario. Educated at George Brown College in Toronto, I have spent the last 20 years working in the advertising and marketing industry. Now I have moved to working more with my passion for imagery. I am inspired by places traveled that provide me with endless inspiration. I have a background in fashion and advertising photography which has given me the passion to pursue my art further. My work was recently exhibited in: Cosenza Italy 2010. Toronto 2010 Mississauga 2010 Toronto 2011 All Private showings.
