"Enjoy some food, photography, art and perhaps even some music"

Sharing some of my passions with the online community, one post at a time.

Food

Food – Something that brings instant pleasure and energy to my body. I’ve been cooking eclectically for many years now, exploring various flavors and spices from around the globe. My travels have sent me to places like India and Vietnam, trying out fresh and very complex dishes. Unable to travel much because I run a company, I try to bring those flavors home, sharing the results with family and friends.

Photography

Photography – Since a young teenager I’ve been running around a camera, albeit a film one at the time. I remember taking my first “up-close” frog photo – showing my parents my proud moment. Since then I have matured and grown, I am today Creative Director and Photographer at a commercial photography studio. With work, I have concentrated on mostly commercial jobs – my other passions have been kept away from the limelight. I will be sharing those images with you here.

Art & Music

My love for art & music was always present, listening to mostly Classical style music when I was very young morphing to rock, in my early teenage years I picked-up bass guitar, keyboards, piano as well as the guitar. Some might say I’m a jack-of-all-trades, master of none, but this has allowed me to create whatever my mind cried out.

With art, my parents were both quite involved: My father was an amateur self-taught in jewelry making, painting, and tinkering all kinds of interesting things, very hands-on kind of man. My mother went to L’Ecole des Beaux Arts in Montreal, where she completed a degree in art, doing sculptures, choreographing some dances, etc. She ended up teaching art as it was a logical way to provide for the family.
