About Me

I have dug through my family tree, then I found out that I am the only one who has ever done graphic design and painting as a profession, except my grand-uncle (on my mother's family side) who was a stage director and actor for the modern drama through his life. My one year younger sister did paint a little, then she moved on to something else. Both of my parents were educators through their lives, I think that's the reason why I'd rather to try something different, even though I did part-time teach Chinese ink calligraphy and painting at city museum for the elementary students when I was in the 2nd grade in art university. It was just a way to see how much I could handle 'teaching' this word which was filled in my ears since I was born, also due to doing painting and graphic design are the only two things that I am able to sit there for hours. I have always felt that I was supposed to be born as a boy as my beloved father had expected. In my memory, I didn't act like a girl that much when I was very young. I had dreamed about becoming a writer in the novelist and poetry field, I forgot since when that dream has faded away, But I have always had the ability to twist words around in both languages. Life has been super good to me even before I chose to come to the U.S. out of 6 countries that I could chosen, it still not too bad as I am writing these words down.

I started drawing naturely just like most kids, I was lucky to get into the only one art group in elementary, and that little campus art group was a very popular one in our state, it still is a special icon till today. I guess that I was one of the lucky ones who had the chance to keep doing what I truly enjoyed to do. Also it's all because of the unconditional love and support that my parents gave to me.

About ART- To me, Art is sharing, it combines creativity with painter's self-comprehensions from life, history, different cultures, and different environments; Through my work, I have tried to experience life and the pathway which I was willingly to choose; In another words, all I'm trying to share is the process that I have shared with myself in each step-finding myself, recognizing myself, keeping myself then going back to my original self; To be able to share my inner senses through each silent stroke and color which have been exuded onto a blank canvas, it has always been a special heartfelt emotional travel to me, actually I was inspired by its silent yet powerful way to bridge communications which I have savored beyond words... also, I feel it is the only thing that I can hold on to in this world, each time when I embrace it and engage it, it is one part of me.

About ARTIST, I do think that for everyone who is doing anything that is related with art, they have already become an individual among others, they are gifted with their sensibilities and creativities which fuels them to be able to stand in different angles to express themselves with their capabilities to highlight something that common sense may passes by. It surely takes extra efforts and strength to reach what art is supposed to mean; The reason why the artist do feel more, because they are the ones who are willing to suffer more and expand our mortal horizons.
