Artist Statement:

Over the years to on-going presence, I have played a lot with mixed media within the confidence of my own inner creativity by just following my heartfelt intuitions and gathering inspiration from many artists/peers, many arts and craft galleries, museums, and festivals. I dared to encourage myself to leap and found out I have the boldness to give a birth of creative action into my never-ending world of making arts and sharing my delightful results.
