After I graduated college, I discovered light painting.

I heard about it.

And then I was like, oh, I've got to try this.

I asked my friends to pose, like to sit.

And they wouldn't move at all in the dark.

It was in total darkness.

And then I would open the shutter on the camera and then light paint on them.

My father was an artist, family history of artists.

Started doing hair for photo shoots, and the photographers were just not getting what I saw or what I needed for my hair book.

And as a frustrated hairdresser, wanting to get my shots, I just grabbed the camera and started shooting fashion.

I got invited to exhibit in Tokyo, in Japan.

And while I was on the plane, I realized that I was a light painter, and I would dedicate my life to light painting.

I was supposed to be there for two weeks, and I stayed there for 10 years.

Patrick Rochon, he's like my brother.

There was an instant bond and attraction to his work.

I was just blown away with his electric work.

That's when he introduced light painting to me.

I haven't stopped it since that day, yeah.

I went to an opening in Tokyo.

All of a sudden, these two guys, completely shaved, wearing almost nothing, painted from head to toe in white sort of moving in the crowd.

The first came to my mind was like, a perfect canvas for light painting.

And we started collaborating.

It was a very powerful experience because their presence was so strong, that light was just coming out.

I would take light and just light painting would just happen.

Having light as a medium, every single time is different.

It's never the same.

You can never repeat the same exact light painting ever again.

Every single one is original.

With any type of digital camera that has a long exposure setting, anyone can just do a really cool light painting.

And it's addictive immediately.

The challenge with the portrait is getting beautiful lighting.

Sharp is not a must.

I like sharp, but sometime there's blurs, there's movements that are beautiful and creative.

What's important is to relax.

You're not moving your body, but still your energy is circulating.

You're breathing and you're just relaxing, and you're being very present.

And that's it.

I always wanted to do a series with eroticism, nudity, sexuality.

And last year, I finally started again.

So I've been working on this new series now.

It's very interesting because I work with the very fine lines on the body, and the light covers the body as much as it shows it.

So the body is lit, but it's hidden at the same time.

It's a new art form that's being realized by everyone, and that's very satisfying because you get these electric results.

It's very deep.

It's unique.

It's not the photography.

It's not painting.

It sits in its own place.

It's interactive for children.

Children can run around with lights and get immediate results and light paint themselves.

The learning that comes from light painting is different than the learning that comes from photography or from painting.

Pretty dope art form to play with-- no wonder it's so contagious.

The more I do it, the more I realize it's completely a form of art.
