I love to keep journals but they only have a few sketches. Most of them are words I write with all my emotions. I took photographs, especially self-portraits, and collaged them to create a story then I translated my self-healing process on canvas.

My mundane habits that reflect the gravity of my own emotions and experiences and people’s fascinating behavior

My art style is an exploration of numerous color combinations and delicate fine line details, subconsciously drawn layer by layer. The fine lines create a wonderful self healing to me. At first glance the painting can be mistaken as created digitally but when you look closely you will notice the textures, the brush strokes, and imperfections of the fine lines.

Being an artist from a different perspective, dancing is my first love but my reality gets in the way. The obstacles to realizing the dream become insurmountable to me. I have hearing impairment and I can no longer dance to the rhythm.
