Hello, I'm Max A.

I grew up in Southern England​,​ more specifically in the Chichester and Portsmouth area. Whilst studying art for a while during my GCSEs​,​ I really began to explore my creativite side​,​ producing pieces of work around nature and abstract art. Unfortunately i didn't have the patient and passion for it. My art career was put on hold for a long time​,​ when I decided to take up filming and photography at College and University. I did lots of photography as a hobby with a lot interesting compositions. My photography is usually from my travels​,​ trying to capture the place in the most beautiful way. I progressed in TV and film for 10 years. I worked as runner to camera assistant in high end commerical shoots working for the BBC​,​ Sky Sporta​,​ National Science Channel​,​ BT Sports​,​ Channel 4 and worked Black dog Limited which was owned by Ridley Scott. I was diagnosed with ME (Chronic Fatigue) and Complex PTSD in my recent years. This caused complications in my film and TV career​,​ unable to persue my dream. However​,​ in return I was given a gift from my mental health. Since i was able to feel trauma and visualise memories as video clips in my head. I was able to see things in my mind as clear as crystal clear. Also​,​ be able to look at any pictures​,​ break down the visual structure in my head. So i can recreate anything. I started Art this year​,​ roughly around 2 months ago. After discovering my hidden talent. I am described as a very kind and generous individual. Also​,​ I like to see the best in everyone. I think this has been applied to my Art. By showing its Innocence and beauty of a subject in its truest form. I'm a self taught Artist with no real knowledge or specific technique. My mind just interprets it as I see it and it is always bursting with new creative Ideas.
