As per the basic profile, I can list up to 10 artwork hence a few of the recently sold items have been archived. Keep an eye out for the "Strays lost and found" (which has returned home after an exhibition) and "Autumnal Mandarin" amongst others to be added soon.

Welcome to my art journey! As a creator, I've been crafting unique, handcrafted pieces in my free time (outside of my day job). I'm deeply grateful for the mentors who've guided me, the connections I've made, and the wonderful homes my art has found.
Each piece is infused with love and care, and I value well-meaning feedback from those who resonate with my quirky designs.
With a strong network of supportive creative peers, I continually refine my craft. Selling my art is a personal choice, inspired by the initial enthusiasm from friends and family. I recognize many talented artists choose not to sell their work, and I respect that.
For those who connect with my art, thank you for embracing its uniqueness. For those who don't, no worries β there's plenty of amazing art out there which I would encourage you to explore. I too would like to ensure that the relevant piece of my artwork is connected with the right person/family.
Collaboration is the key of my artistic practice. I also speak with other artists to brainstorm ideas regarding art creation techniques and products to showcase their artwork. Join me in celebrating the beauty of handmade art, and I look forward to sharing my creations with those who connect with them.
