Hello

I am an immigrant and Chinese American artist living in Seattle. I make art, grow plants, explore life, and balance spreadsheets. 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.

My art is self taught as I am always curious to learn about and experiment with a variety of mediums including pencil drawing, watercolor, and acrylic.

Besides creating at my studio, I am exploring interactions with the art community through exhibits, ecommerce, festivals, and public art.
