About me

"Its the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting."- Paulo Coelho in The Alchemist -This human body was born on an Imbolc evening (1st of February) in 1981 by the name of Ana Isabel on the beautiful island of São Miguel (Azores, Portugal). Ever since I was a child I felt deviated from what was considered to be normal and never seemed to truly fit in anywhere. Dreams would speak to me of things I could not explain and rarely dared sharing with others. Ever since I can remember my being would constantly battle with a persistent hunger: Love. And it was this hunger that brushed my first writings and that kept me moving and searching for my soulmate. That is why I’ve always knew I would depart from my homeland.When the time came I've embarked in a journey that took all the way to the wonderful and beautiful country of Norway to the inspiring and big city of London (UK). During this time I’ve developed my passion for Photography and my own vision/style. But it was in London that my search was finally over: I've found the other half of me and he recognized me. Since then I’ve detached from that part of me what used writing as a sort of therapy for my own romantic sadness. I am no longer that person... and yet that person is still a part of me. I’ve learned to trust my own instincts/visions and to see the magic in every exact moment in time and within every connection made in this Universe.I know my soul is in continuous evolvement and that is what keeps me pursuing my dreams.My soul feeds on these hopes and dreams... My heart would have festered by now without them... I feed my dreams with art and my art with magic.Magic for me is the pure essence of life... Nature! Our true nature! It’s the opportunity to be ourselves and to reveal our true soul's essence (independently of society, culture and religion) that keeps us growing. There is nothing more soothing than being surrounded by nature and to just be, to feel a part of it. To understand that dualities are mere illusions. Love and Darkness, one could never be/exist without the presence of the other. And that is magic: The true element behind my art.I am mostly inspired and fascinated by the things that play a big role in my life and that keep my imagination flowing: fairytales, music, animism, paganism, fantasy, anarchism, love, blood and death. I believe I truly have an enormous passion and curiosity for life. I usually find myself observing and studying people’s behaviours and emotions. I believe that every single being in this world is connected and we all should look after our world. After all, we owe our own human existence to it.To finalize, I must say that it is the opportunity to combine a part of myself with a part of my clients self in a single piece that makes everything special. Therefore, in my writings I try to create magic and in my photography I strive to capture other people’s magic. Lots of love and happiness,Ana Isabel
