DESCRIPTION:\n
 JANA ZACHARIOU is a Czech-born photographer living in the southern pa
 rt of Vancouver Island. In the past couple of years, Jana has shifted
  her focus and has successfully created a niche for herself in the ph
 otographic world of florals. Rather than focusing on the technicaliti
 es involved in taking a photo, she explores photography with a mindfu
 lness approach. She loves creating and experimenting with textures in
  post-processing to make them come alive with an added layer of depth
 . \n

 Her first real interaction with photography actually started in front
  of the lens as a fashion model in the mid-80's. Jana, however, found
  her true calling on the other side of the lens and her knowledge of 
 photography is entirely self-taught. After having lived in various lo
 cations around the world, she chose to call Canada her home. Eventual
 ly settling on the West Coast was the true beginning of Jana's endles
 s love affair with a camera.\n

 Photography opened a door to an aberrant way of seeing and appreciati
 ng the world around her. Jana's ability to capture inspiring imagery 
 came about, in part, because of the abundance of natural scenery that
  surrounds her on the West Coast. The visual drama and artistry of he
 r photographs are born from a keen eye for the many moods of the natu
 ral world. Initially, her photography was focused on landscapes. Jana
 's hope is that when viewed, her dreamy floral images evoke a sense o
 f emotion.\n
