IT ALL BEGAN WITH THE QUESTION, “WHEN WILL I BE ABLE TO DO THINGS THAT I LOVE TO DO?”
I was 27 years old when I moved more than 10000 miles away from my homeland. I felt stuck, and trapped. I really did not know what to do with my life.
My heart is longing for something, something else that the old place could offer me.
BACK TO MYSELF
I wanted to become myself, do what I love to do, and excel in the things I’m interested in.
However, little that I know it’s not easy to break the survivor mode. The chaos had become too comfortable for me.
A NEW PATH IN MY JOURNEY
In 2013, I booked a single-journey flight to a different continent. I received a lot of support from my other half and began exploring studies programs and jobs. However, too many choices were also not good. I couldn’t focus on one interest and ended up doing a lot of things.
Back in my homeland, I actually had a small craft business but it didn’t go well. I could write novels about my first few years here but to cut the story short, my creative side started to show, again. At that time it was burning from the inside, asking to be noticed and embraced.
THE CROSSROADS
As supportive as he was and still is till today, my husband introduced me to travel. This time to other countries and I noticed that I enjoyed taking pictures. We wrote a travel blog together, but after three years, I felt overwhelmed and lost interest because I tried to be like others.
While studying for a Postgraduate Diploma in Interior Design, the creative side emerged. All the colourful stationeries screamed out loud as if they want me to use them more than just on paper and computer.
I started to search for more information on the internet and YouTube. The more I read, the more I knew what I wanted to do in my life.
I began to study more about photography and abstract paintings, then I continued with writing. I couldn’t prevent the ideas from flowing in. This new land inspired me and cheered me up like nothing I could’ve felt before.
ABOUT US
After I graduated, I didn’t look back. I want to be able to make a living with my art. The most important thing, I want to heal my broken souls and I want to live again. The art…offered me that.
My husband helped me set up my business in every way he possibly could. He gives opinions about my choices of colours in the paintings, takes pictures together and of course, travels.
In the near future, we will work together to design and produce our own merch brand. Thanks to the great technology nowadays, we will keep you updated no matter where you are.
MY ART
It was one year before COVID hit the entire world, I started to learn and practice painting. The more I did it, the stronger my passion became. Since then, I explored many materials, techniques and styles that would suit me.
Believe it or not, I find my inspiration by looking back to my past. It wasn’t all gloomy and dark. My time with the people in my life was and still is wonderful. I chose abstract art because it gives freedom for the viewer to feel and many thoughts would also come out of it. It’s really fascinating for me to know others’ opinions.
I also share my feelings about this first collection through a poetry book which I wrote by myself. You may purchase it here.
PHOTOGRAPHY & VIDEOGRAPHY
Now my camera is also my best friend. I know that I still have a lot to learn but I can see that my skill is improving day by day. I don’t want to limit myself but landscape and nature photography has caught my eye the most.
Nevertheless, as a traveller, I will take pictures and shoot videos as I go. I guess you already know that I love to take pictures.
I will soon offer my pictures as free wallpaper for your mobile phone. Besides, in the near future, you will be able to purchase my photo print and wallpaper through my website as well.
