Hello! I am generally known online as Kazuma, I have a bachelors degree in fine arts focusing in Ceramics (though I could have focused in Glass blowing/fusing if the school had let me count those classes as the focus). I now have several years of experience in Ceramics and I hope to be able to get back into it soon. While I enjoy drawing and other 2d types of art, They are generally not my passion and I personally don't like my style of 3d art in many cases.
I am currently a retail associate with Centurylink, with a goal to someday open up a ceramic store. I will continue to practice ceramics until the day I feel I am good enough to be able to do that.
One thing I did a few years back was write a poem book, this book is a self published book with all my poems in it, While I would love to be able to sell it in stores, I have not tried to do that as it isn't currently worth the time for me and I am happy enough with the self published book.
Very recently (within the last few months), I have started to get into photography, this is something that before this past year, I had never really tried to do for a few reasons. I first never had that great of a camera, my best camera being a cheaper camera used for taking pictures of my 3d art pieces. This was the main reason for not doing photography, it created an effect where the photos I would take just wouldn't be that great and made me not really interested in it. A few months back (between 6 months and a year ago), I was lucky to get a great camera for an extremely good price. I ended up buying it and while for the first few months I didn't use it much, I have recently started to use it more and more. I am still learning the tricks to capture great shots but am also very happy with several shots I have been able to capture. Another reason was simply that I didn't have a desire to capture anything, I was fine with what I was doing and so I didn't give it much thought. I have started to notice that I love pictures of nature and things related to it. The majority of my pictures I hope will be related to that and can maybe even spark interest and help in areas related to nature that need it.
My goal now is to figure out how to create high quality photos from this photography as a means of selling, This is new to me and I'm still deciding on the best places to do the printing. I hope that I will be able to showcase this work publicly and not just through the use of the internet. I will try to update this as I get more and more used to photography and the printing process.
