LADY SAVAGE PHOTOGRAPHY ©

"LADY SAVAGE" OR " LSAV ." SPENT MOST OF HER LIFE IN OAKLAND, CA. BEING RAISED IN A VERY LARGE CITY GAVE HER THE OPPORTUNITY TO SEE AND EXPERIENCE MANY THINGS FIRST HAND. WITH AN ARTIST FOR A MOTHER SHE PICKED UP A BRUSH AT A VERY YOUNG AGE AND FELL IN LOVE. CONTINUING TO DRAW & PAINT UNTIL SHE WAS 13, SHE THEN DISCOVERED PHOTOGRAPHY. TODAY HER ARTWORK & PHOTOGRAPHY IS A LIFE LONG PROJECT THAT IS CONTINUOUSLY PROGRESSING. ALTHOUGH SHE WORKS HARD AT BOTH CRAFTS, HER MAIN FOCUS IS PHOTOGRAPHY AT THE MOMENT. SHE ENJOYS COLOR FOR PAINTINGS HOWEVER ALL HER PHOTOGRAPHY, IS IN B&W. " ...THERE IS SOMETHING CAPTIVATING ABOUT B& W. IT LEAVES NOTHING BUT THE "TRUTH" IN A PHOTOGRAPH..." INSPIRATION COMES FROM HER MOTHER, PERSONAL LIFE OBSERVATION AND THOSE EXPERIENCES FROM OTHERS AROUND HER. ALL HER IDEAS ARE CREATED FROM THE WORLD THAT SURROUNDS HER, THE PEOPLE WHO INSPIRE HER AND THE MUSIC THAT MOVES HER. LADY SAVAGE'S ARTWORK AND PHOTOGRAPHY GO HAND IN HAND. FOCUSING MAINLY ON URBAN LIFE, SHE CREATES A VISION OF BEAUTY THAT MOST PEOPLE OVERLOOK DAILY. GRAFFITI AND HIP HOP PLAY A LARGE ROLL IN BOTH HER ART AND PHOTOGRAPHS. WITH A STRONG PASSION AND RESPECT FOR GRAFFITI SHE USES ELEMENTS OF IT IN HER WORK. HOWEVER, HER STYLE IS NOT YOUR TYPICAL GRAFFITI. A SECRET ABOUT LADY SAVAGE IS THAT SHE TRULY CREATES FOR THE LOVE OF THE ART & FOR NO OTHER REASON!!!! BEING ABLE TO CAPTURE MOMENTS IN TIME IS AN AMAZING CONCEPT. TO LOOK BACK AND SEE HOW CITIES AND PEOPLE HAVE CHANGED. SHE KNOWS SOME PEOPLE WILL NOT UNDERSTAND THE IMAGES SHE CHOOSES TO CAPTURE OR WHERE THE BEAUTY IS IN HER PHOTOGRAPHS. SOME WILL THINK THEY ARE JUST PLAIN SAD. THE FACT IS : SOME OF THEM ARE SAD. SOME ARE DOWN RIGHT DEPRESSING. LOOK DEEP INTO THOSE PHOTOS AND THEN THINK OF YOUR OWN LIFE SITUATION. BELIEVE THAT ONCE A VIEWER DOES THIS THEN THEY WILL SEE THE BEAUTY! THE EXPERIENCE OF SOMETHING NEW AND UNIQUE IS WHAT SHE WANTS FOR PEOPLE TO HAVE. SHARING HER THOUGHTS AND IDEAS AS A PHOTOGRAPHER AND TO INSPIRE OTHERS IN THEIR OWN AMBITIONS IS HER ULTIMATE GOAL." JUST A KID FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF THE TRACKS ......
