My Story
I was born and raised in China. I began painting in 2019 and I am totally self-taught. My first experience as an artist was when I painted a cartoon portrait on a pair of shoes. I discovered she really enjoyed it and had a natural talent. I soon started painting people, animals and landscapes.
​
I believes that being an artist is something that one is born to do and not learned at school. I went on to study through practical experience, learning through trial and error, and studying the works of YouTube and their techniques.
With family encouragement and support, especially from my father who is a calligraphy artist, I became a full-time artist, part-time model and actress while taking care of her own children.

ARTIST STATEMENT
I discovered beautiful things in my life! Happiness, joy, chills, laughs, and all sorts of emotions! I enjoy what art have brought to me. Colorful on canvas or on unique objects, that’s the way I make my brush dance and my colors sing.
Capturing the light is everything! It’s elusive quality can transform a figure or a landscape in just a matter of seconds. I strive to convey that sense of place by capturing its fleeting magic. It’s always the light that I need to put on a face to make a natural expression or to make the flowers brighten.
My goal is to inspire those who see my work to look more carefully at the world around them and to discover beauty in unusual places.
