Accomplished

I have precious moments where my mind wanders to a quiet place, and my thoughts embrace creativity on a gentle dance together.

My paintings are a reflection of those dances. A collection of images that I store within me and I like to share with my friends and loved ones. My paintings say what I can’t say.

And with that, I feel accomplished.

Giving

Since I graduated from college, people have asked me to give art lessons, but I always refused. I value the ability to teach and the responsibility that comes with it. Teaching shapes lives for better or worse. Teaching is the most critical job because it is the basis of all jobs. I take it very seriously.

The invitations didn’t stop, and I finally said yes. I spend more time preparing for the class than actually giving the lesson.

The result was excellent! It felt good to see the children’s drawings and their satisfaction with what they could achieve. Knowing that I was the one that helped them feel like little artists gave me such joy.

Giving is the best feeling.

Flair

I love working with my hands. It runs in the family. I remember seeing my grandfather woodworking, shoemaking, and his ability to transform nothing into something extraordinary.

My father was very crafty. Also, he built our house furniture. His artistic side was expressed through photography, working in his photography lab.

With these examples and my curiosity and willingness to try new things, I became the little girl with an artistic flair.
