THINK. CREATE. INSPIRE.

PHOTOGRAPHY / ART
Picture
Photographer: Ron Villaraza
Artist Statement
I seek to offer snapshots of places and spaces that are often avoided and/or misunderstood. The visual arts allow me to document experiences that don’t always make the headlines of newspapers. My interests include: documentary, street, entertainment, artistic, nature, travel, models, automotive, portraits, and animals.
The photograph does not belong /
to the photographer it belongs to the camera.

                                                   --Terrance Hayes
