About

Working in my studio

In early 2020, I left the sun-drenched landscapes of California to Alaska, a place I had never visited before. I was deeply captivated by the stunning and majestic natural scenery of the Last Frontier. The beauty and magic of Alaska’s landscapes reignited my childhood dream of becoming an artist. Consequently, I decided to abandon my career plan as a graphic designer and embark on my new artistic journey.

I have a profound love for nature and often explore the wilderness near my home with my family, drawing endless inspiration from its beauty. I like to use a range of mediums including acrylic, pyrography, watercolor, and pastel to create art. While I am passionate about depicting the raw landscapes of nature, I also infuse my works with humanistic elements. This approach adds depth to my art, allowing it to resonate deeply with diverse audiences.

Drawing on the professional art knowledge I gained while studying graphic design at DVC in California in 2017, along with several years of dedicated practice, I have experienced significant artistic growth. Over the past four years, my work has received numerous art honors and grant awards from Alaska arts organizations. I am grateful to the beautiful land of Alaska for opening my artistic path. 

Currently, I am a member of the Juneau Artists Gallery located at 175 S. Franklin Street, Juneau, Alaska 99801. Feel free to drop by and take a look around. I would love to receive your feedback on my artwork. Please feel free to share any thoughts you may have at any time.
