ABOUT ME

 I grew up in Malaysia & Singapore. I had always loved art as a child and often had my paintings hung on the display board at my school as exemplary art. The biggest motivation that led me to where I am today is when I received an award as the best artist during my final year in high school. 

 During my leisure time as I grew older, I would paint, and most of my paintings included replications of pictures. One day, a dear friend’s dog, Lola (a sweet, well-mannered and loyal companion), passed away. So, I decided to paint a portrait of her as a way to capture my fond memory of her. I immediately fell in love with the entire process of painting Lola, especially her eyes. I became obsessed with ensuring that her portrait would depict the unique and beloved soul she was. 

After many compliments from customers and friends about my pet portrait paintings, I finally decided to pull the plug from years of working as a graphic artist and preschool teacher, to solely focus on painting pet portraits, as well as traveling.
 

When I paint, I’m engaged and engrossed in every detail of my work. What is most important to me is seeing the pleased faces of my customers along with fulfilling my own expectations of my work.

My methodology involves using a photograph of someone’s pet, and I then hand-paint using watercolor or acrylic on paper or canvas and create an accurate rendition.  All of my paintings are 100% hand-painted with no computer involvement. I strive to collaborate with my clients throughout the process to ensure they will be satisfied with the end result.
