A vault of digital artefacts: 2003–2023
The Digital Beginning marks a 20-year passage through a vast terrain of digital creation—150 artefacts
woven through layers of pixels, time, and personal evolution. This collection doesn’t merely represent a
series of works—it archives the growth of a language, the forging of a new medium in my hands. From the
first piece—a 2003 photo edit with elf ears—to the latest polished vision from 2023, these works form a
visual diary of light, transformation, and internal awakening.
I was just a teen when I first ventured into the realm of digital creation, drawn by curiosity and the urge to
express myself through pixels. I still remember the feeling like a familiar scent: a charged, unnameable
energy mixed with the electric glow of discovery.

Mastery Through Intuition
I was discovering tools and software, turning raw techniques into fluency. Over time, those tools became extensions
of my intuition, just like a brush or pen. I learned about layers, selections, masks, and blend modes—skills gained
through online tutorials and long hours of experimentation. I’d never follow the guides to the letter; I always twisted
them toward my own vision, crafting something that felt distinctly mine.
In those early years, working digitally felt both liberating and limiting. The freedom of undo, the instant color shifts,
the glowing vibrancy of screen-born work—it gave me a new way to dream. Yet mastering the techniques was
necessary to access that freedom fully. And with mastery came a new kind of play: not bound by the rules of pigment
or paper, but open to endless reformation. With one click, light could vanish into darkness—or a piece could radiate
like the sun breaking through the void.
Integration with Traditional Practice These digital works are not separate from my traditional practice—they are part of the same storyline. The
Cloudhatch still weaves its way through, so do the archetypes, the dualities, the cycles—all still present, but expressed
in a medium made of digits and light. Some pieces belong to the larger series that run through my work—like
Meanings or Transformation. Others are standalone snapshots of thought, emotion, or subconscious symbolism.
At a certain point, my creative process began to blend the boundaries: scanning sketches, refining them digitally,
printing them out again, and drawing anew on top. A single piece might pass through analogue and digital realms
multiple times before it arrives at its final form. That transformational rhythm—of shifting states, mediums, realities
—is central to my work, and deeply symbolic of life itself.
The Alchemy of Light Working digitally has its own kind of alchemy. You’re not pushing pigment across a surface—you’re shaping light.
Through layer blending, you can darken a scene into mystery, or shift it into radiant exposure. It’s immediate,
powerful, and unpredictable in its own way. That fluidity allows for sudden revelations. A single adjustment can
unveil a hidden dimension, shift the emotional center of a piece, or completely dissolve the known form. The magic is
in how deliberate chaos turns into a precise outcome.
A Creative ContinuumAnd I keep building. I keep creating.
I walk forward with my creative torch in hand—
illuminating new intersections of soul and screen.
