Hello

I am a Chinese American artist and muralist living in Seattle. I feel determined to live creatively using art to express my story and appreciation for what I find beautiful. I value nature, authenticity, supporting my people, attention to detail, curiosity, and resourcefulness.

Besides creating at my studio, I am exploring interactions with the art community through exhibits, public art, and building a small business.
