MEET THE ARTIST

Dr Zenaidy Castro is a founder of Vogue Smiles Melbourne, a private Dental practice based in Melbourne CBD, Australia. Prior to working in photography, her artistic journey involved exploration and experimentation with painting a wide variety of subject matter, ranging from organized still life to landscape, to life drawing, to portraits, to abstract.

She also worked in a wide range of styles, interests, and themes, as well as in a variety of media, and was influenced by many artistic styles. Her creative process seems like a yin and yang, with a strong passion for each end of the colour spectrum—from black and white to art that displays a visual feast of colour.

These different parts of her artistic persona balance each other. She feel strongest consistent love of abstract art—in all of its different forms, be it a real painting or digital art or in photography. She love the creative process involved in searching your imagination for inspiration. She love the vibrancy and colour explosion in abstract works, which expresses mood and infuses the art with life of its own, built upon richly coloured paint and a wide rangeof textural effects, painting strokes, and styles.

She always seek inspiration by how something so small and seemingly insignificant can be transformed into something big and beautiful and full of life with colour, forms, lines, and light. She like that the unfolding of things—with different perspective and imagination—will begiven a chance to turn into something beautiful.

She love her artistic journey of creating and improvising something, from simple realistic images to abstract renditions, and ending up with something entirely different. Perhaps this isher personal “handwriting” of art—her share of the world’s visual language.
