E M P O W E R
Growing up in the 80s, women's empowerment was not a popular concept.
I found inspiration in female characters from comic book art, fantasy, and sci-fi genres, such as Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Xena the Warrior Princess, in my fight against gender discrimination.
Interestingly, I also held the largest collection of Barbie dolls amongst my friends, showing the duality of my interests.
However, as a young fashion student in the early 2000s, I realized that femininity, not masculinity, was the source of female empowerment.
Since then, my artistic quest has been dedicated to exploring the female form in all its beauty, flaws, and complexities - both physical and mental, material and spiritual.
Most of my current artwork is dedicated to this purpose of celebrating and showcasing the ultimate feminine power.

At the age of 22, I embarked on a journey as a costume designer, fulfilling my childhood dream.
It was an incredible experience until I had my first child. As a new mother, I decided to focus on my favorite skill - drawing.
Initially, I started as a fashion illustrator, but soon realized that my talent could be utilized in more areas. Thus, I became a commercial illustrator and began working with marketing managers and media companies on promotional illustrated materials for businesses and brands.
Over the years, as I continued to evolve with my art, I started working with interior designers and developed a passion for the field of architecture and interior design.

I BELIEVE THAT THE ART YOU SURROUND YOURSELF WITH, MUST INSPIRE,
ELEVATE AND UPLIFT YOUR SPIRIT CONSTANTLY.
IN MY OPINION, ART SHOULD BE “EASY TO SWOLLOW”
AND ALLOW YOU TO INTERPRET IT HOWEVER YOU DECIDE.
I BELIEVE WE SHOULD SURROUND OURSELVES WITH BEAUTY AND JOY, TO ENSURE
A LIFE FILLED WITH BEAUTY AND JOY.
THAT IS WHY MY ART IS PASSIONATELY CRAFTED,
DESIGNED TO INSPIRE AND EMPOWER YOU ON A DAILY BASIS.
COMMISIONED ART IS AVAILABLE BY REQUEST, SO FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME
WITH YOUR IDEAS AND IMAGINATION.
