Hi, I'm Walshy, and I work under the artistic name 'Street Shots'. I am the founder of Evolving Canvases and a photographer. My journey into photography began during a difficult time in my life, while I was dealing with anxiety, depression, and coming out of a 20 year addiction. Street photography was my way in. It gave me a reason to get outside, reconnect with people, and slowly rebuild my confidence, and a new identity outside of addiction. Over time, that developed into a real passion, and I began exploring more in camera creative techniques as a way to express what I was feeling internally. Photography became more than just an outlet, it became a way of understanding myself and rebuilding my life. Through Evolving Canvases, I now use that same approach to support others. We develop structured, accessible workshops that help people explore creativity, improve wellbeing, and express themselves in a safe and supportive environment. Everything I do is grounded in lived experience and a belief that creativity can genuinely change lives.
