Artist/Fine Art Photographer

My Artistic Journey

About

Born in Mauritius, Steeven Shaw is a self-taught fine art photographer with over 15 years
of experience, as well as a web developer. Drawing since November 2019 and has worked
for over 25 French fashion agencies for 8 years.

Charcoal is one of the first tools humans used to make artwork, appearing in cave paintings
dating back 28,000 years. The first use of charcoal for purposes other than providing heat was
around 30,000 BC when cavemen used it as a pigment for drawing on the walls of caves.

My Art is a reflection of resilience, born from moments when life fractured me.
Each drawing captures the depth of those experiences, translating Pain into Beauty and Struggle
into Strength. Just as life has broken me and rebuilt me, my art emerges from those cracks,
revealing a story of survival and transformation with every stroke.

An immensely difficult medium to master yet incredibly expressive medium.

Through my work, I hope to inspire others.

This type of art is an immensely difficult medium to master, both physically & emotionally.
It takes years and late nights. Between 100 and 300 hours+, or even more, to complete, depending on the details.

Steeven Shaw is an artist.

Paul Choy is a British-born, Mauritian photographer driven by a desire to tell the story of the people he meets and the places he visits through the photographs he captures.

“Steeven Shaw is an artist. Taking a photograph is easy. Anyone can do it. Point your camera, release the shutter and snap, you have a photograph. But telling a story through the photographs you capture, that is how you become an artist. Steeven is such an artist. Emotion. Connection. Fascination. These are the tools of creativity which Steeven uses to tell his stories, through the photographs he creates, each creation a new chapter in the story of life through his lens. Well done Steeven, your photographs are a testament to the power of a creative mind and I can’t wait to see your story you will tell us next.” www.PaulChoy.com , Facebook , Instagram
