Do you remember what it was like the first time you tried Photoshop?

Well, I remember the first time I just opened a picture and went through all the tools, just to see what happens when I clicked certain things. Photoshop is a good thing for just trying to add stuff. So I did a lot of experimentation in the beginning – maybe photograph my hand and add an extra finger, change the colours, etc. It took some time, but I got quite good at it.

The work you do is incredible!

Thank you. It requires a lot of time (laughs). Photoshop is a tool for me to combine my photos, but I think it’s really about the planning, and capturing as much as possible in camera, and then moving it one step further. That’s why it’s such a long process. The planning takes most of the time actually.

What was it like when you were starting out?
