When you think about palm trees, the Caribbean Sea, and eternal sunshine, it feels like a paradise. It’s different when you permanently live and work there. Long ago, it was my dream to live and take photos at the beach, and I worked hard to grow my photography business in Cancun, but running for more business turned into less happiness. One day I asked myself: “What’s the point of striving so hard for more if I don’t feel happy?” On the contrary, I was stressed and anxious all the time. The joy of creating vanished and got replaced with a cold, ever-growing “TO-DO list” where it was difficult to find time to simply relax, do nothing and feel life. 

At some point, after staying several days in bed, watching movies, eating ice cream and other desserts (think Bridget Jones, but with no alcohol), I told myself: “I need to change something!” And I did this by infusing my life with aesthetic pleasures, beautifying my surroundings, and having fun with personal style. All that restored balance in my life and reaffirmed what I learned as a student, that Art and aesthetics can bring happiness. 

On the base of my professional background and personal story, I created Fine Art Lifestyle with the goal of sharing inspiration, beauty, creativity insights, and visual elegance.
