How does creativity connect to self-expression for you?
My creations are like a reflection of my personal experiences, especially from my time in the corporate world and other significant events. I enjoy blending sarcasm and playful wordplay into my work to give it that extra punch of depth and humor. Turning my drawings into merchandise is my way of sharing these experiences with others, hoping they can relate to them as well.

How do you define your individuality as an artist, and in what ways does this uniqueness manifest in your creations?
My brand identity is characterized by pink pastel hues paired with sarcastic undertones in my artwork, serving as the finishing touch. This combination creates a distinctive style that people can easily recognize as mine. My individuality shines through as I translate my life experiences into my art works, adding depth and authenticity to my creations.


In your perspective, what role does creativity play in empowering individuals and communities, and how have you witnessed this power in action?
Creativity lets people be real through art in many ways. It helps them share their thoughts and feelings, making their experiences feel seen. And when they connect with others who feel the same way, it makes them feel stronger and more united.

Have you faced any challenges in maintaining your individuality in your work, especially in the face of trends or external expectations? How did you overcome them?
I do face challenges at times, but I overcome them by staying true to myself. I try my best not to compare my journey to others', as my own progress is what matters most. Being authentic and focused on my path keeps me moving forward.


What advice would you give to emerging artists who are trying to find and express their individuality through their work?
No need to overthink it, just go for it! Imperfections are part of the process. Express yourself in your own special way, and you'll feel that sense of satisfaction whenever you put pen to paper or paint on canvas. And besides, there’s nothing quite like art therapy.


What’s the one thing you want to accomplish this year?
Finding that perfect balance between work and personal life. It gets tricky especially when you’ve fully turned your passion into a profession. But I’ll do my best to navigate through it somehow!
