I certainly don't have a classical art school background because technically I'm an ecologist. Since I got my master's degree from Vilnius University, I have been working with various environmental projects, nature sciences laboratories, and ecology consulting companies. I also worked as an editor for several years right after I finished high school. I started taking pictures just for fun. When I was twenty, I took my mother's Nikon and started to shoot. I took pictures of literally everything. Locating what is beautiful is always a challenge but the biggest difficulty I encounter creating my pictures is in making sure that the final images are just like I imagined them in my head. I like to play with unusual locations, trying to tell a story. In my opinion, the overall feel should be like in a movie, where the atmosphere plays an important role in transmitting the message. I'm striving to create a feeling that there is something yet to be revealed to come through in my work.
