The 411 on Tea of Tea Photography

Tea, of Tea Photography, has been working in the Arts in some kind of realm since she was a child.


She was a ballet dancer for six years, and learned a little of a couple other dance forms.





She has played mostly piano, and clarinet, and a little of a few others, but especially loved what little she gleaned from guitar in her older years.





In her older years, she became heavily involved in Martial Arts, specifically Kemscrima-Doh, when a black belt certification was eventually earned. It is a beautifully mixed art, where she learned what it was comprised of in its purities, as well as blended, and therefore understanding a lot about favouring balance in all things and the acceptance and value in variety.





Her roots dig deepest in writing, since childhood, where she could never be seen without a notebook or diary. In her notebooks, at age 6, she claimed her stories, were "Children's Stories" and she did her own illustrations. These were done in pencil and crayons.





Tea also never went without sketch pads and charcoal pencils. Though, most anything was game, it seemed her favourite subject was trees.





About the age of 9, she received her first camera, a Kodak. This opened up another realm in the artistic world. She's never ceased in photography ever since.





When the button fell out of it, she knew her parents would not buy another, so resourcefully, she pulled the pink eraser out of a standard yellow pencil and stuck it in the hole and covered it with black electrical tape, and on she went, for a few more years in the life of that camera.





Tea has many interests and sees Life, itself, as a living and breathing Art. She believes that:





***Life is Art, Messy yet Beautiful all at Once.***





Because she has many interests and values diversity, she feels her work reflects this. She believes that she speaks to a wonderfully varied audience, and therefore she has something for everyone.





She has a strong desire to combined artistic efforts with important issues like Nature, Environmental Issues, Animal Rights, Emotive Scenes, etc. ...





Tea conceives that photography, and art in general, can promote healing, build bridges, and create knowledge, peace, and understanding between people.





Tea also subscribes to the personal well-being which photography, art in general, and the freedom to be creative, cultivates in her own life.
