About me

Art is a way of life and a reflection of my self, my dreams and desires. It is a colourful, positive art with a good dose of humour and a rough edge.
I previously studied fashion design and has also worked in graphic design and typography. Creativity plays an important role in my life. My interest in fashion, the studies in fashion and previous modelling career all contributed to my artistic sensibility and perspective. Today, i employ these previous occupations thematically in my paintings. My pieces are impact, addressing the viewer directly with their pop energy and bold aesthetic. 

Being an artist is like being two entities! When you handle the brush you are the artist but the moment you step back to view the canvas you become the critic. This internal dialogue fuels creativity.
I often getting asked where i get my inspirations from. My artistic inspiration comes mostly from my life. I really just expressing myself. For me being in the studio, listening to music and experimenting is the way. And by working everyday in my studio, I am constantly inspired and motivated to create. I say if you allow yourself time to develop your skills, the process of getting better at something is inspirational in itself. You start to realise where your strengths and weaknesses lie. So inspiration for me as an artist becomes a sort of self-fulfilling loop where the more art I produce, the more I develop. And the more I grow in skill, the more inspired I become.
Which makes me want to produce more art!
