About her Art
I am a California,
Singapore and UK trained, multidisciplinary artist, currently focusing on
painting, photography and digital artwork.
I want my art to be natural
and effortless like breathing, exciting and engaging like music, and
spontaneous and fluid like dancing. That's why my artworks are mostly
spontaneously created with interesting texture and tonal contrast. My painting
style can be described as "naturalist cum impressionistic with swift
carefree fluidity and bold emotive brush strokes".
I believe, in Art, there
are no limits: boundaries are often what we have created to constrain
ourselves. To me, creating art is liberating and exhilarating as it awakes all
my senses, excites me and lets my imagination and creativity run freely. In addition,
art is a type of meditation as it can increase awareness, promote inner healing
and deep reflection.
Most of my artworks are
meant to evoke a mood which directly engages one’s emotionality. Thus, the
artworks have a life of their own: evolving whilst interacting and connecting
with diverse audiences of different generations.
Impressionism,
Expressionism and Abstract Art have inspired me, and my other inspiration comes
from Mother Nature, travel, music, popular culture, science, architecture and
history. I hope to capture the myriad flavours of life and memories in my
artworks via employing the various skills and techniques that I have learned
and/or developed. In addition, I am keen on learning and experimenting with
different art forms because I want to produce interesting and engaging artworks
which blend certain fascinating features of Western and Eastern art together.
