“Art is what we call...the thing an artist does.

Art is not in the ...eye of the beholder. It's in the soul of the artist.”
 
'''Ted Grant'''

'''Aristeidis Sfakianos'''


“Your first 10,000 photographs are your worst.
Sometimes, it’s not about the gear. It’s about the vision. The patience. The courage to step closer or to take a step back. It’s about learning to focus, not just through the lens, but in life.
