The creative journey
My style and inspiration:
My creative work leans toward the surreal and whimsical, inspired by abstract expressionism, outsider art and classical Chinese landscapes.I introduce fluid strokes, layered textures and symbolic details through mixed media, mainly watercolor, gouache and ink, while focusing on movement and color.As an animal lover, I like to include them as symbols of emotion and self-expression, alongside elements from nature. I'm currently steering my artistic direction toward conceptual art and surface design.
