Woman Artist Needs Your Support

https://www.instagram.com/mariaturner7/ 

Hello Everyone,

I would like to kindly ask if you would please share or donate to my GoFundMe.  

Having been a student of life, I find photography as a medium that allows me to express myself and the way I perceive the world. It's the way I feel people, the way I see you in me, the way I see myself in you. We are all related, we are all one, and I really do feel that way.


I never thought I would need or dare to create a gofundme page to ask support, it is a bit intimidating for me. I am a self-taught photographer, dedicated, very passionate and even obsessed with it. I give my time to learn, explore,and grow!


I find  myself in a challenging situation as I recently had my computer die on me. I lost important work for completing my portfolio, and for a book project I've been visualizing for a long time!
I've been trying to edit with Lightroom on my old slow and freezing iMac (2013!) and it finally gave up. I spent endless hours staring at a spinning ball- waiting waiting, waiting... It wasn't up to the task with the processing power needed for high end photo and video editing. 
I very much need your help and support to acquire the right tools- an iMac Pro and to recover my hard drive data, the cost is estimated and my goal is to raise $7000. I can't waste precious time anymore.


Unfortunately during these tough times, my opportunities to make money for a new computer are limited. Please take a look at my work  on instagram @mariaturner7, the only online platform where you can see some of my work (my beginnings). Fine art prints are available to purchase (archival pigment, limited edition ), and please feel free to dm me if you are interested !


My passion for photography is my fuel, it makes me feel alive. I couldn’t live without passion, and I would find it to be sinful to not follow my gut, my instincts, to not use skills and nourish my soul. What is left if I did not do that? What is life for?


Any and every little bit helps, it adds up, it matters, is welcomed and can make a difference!
I still believe in kindness!


 I am Grateful !
