I've always loved art as a child, but it was only in 2007, that I took a 3-month oil painting course at NAFA and met Mr Low Kim Chit, and proceeded to take more lessons from him over a year. This started my real love for canvas painting (using acrylic). Fast forward to 2017, almost a decade later - I was finding myself burnt out at work, wondering what I could do in life, and I decided to come back to painting. Since then, I’ve found greater fulfillment in life, firstly through reconnecting with my love for painting from my younger days, and second, I see art now as a means to know myself and discover new ways of thinking. Art challenges me to see if I can do something differently each time I start on a new piece. Besides the challenges, it is also pleasure. I find myself wanting to capture the beauty of a scene, just like photography – to immortalise it. I don’t quite believe that art must always have a message, to me it is simply capturing beauty for beauty’s sake. Now working as a freelance social media marketeer, I make time in between and dabble with acrylic and watercolour. My art style is realistic and I love the interplay of light and shadow, as well as scenes of nature. I believe that by sharing my love for art, I can inspire others with the joy and beauty that art brings. It’s an identity I’d like to grow old with.
