I am a self-taught Filipina-American artist and have been painting since childhood. As a first generation American, I was discouraged from becoming an artist, but I continued to paint because I wanted to capture the beauty that surrounded me.
I use a continuous line to organically reveal the positive energy that exists in all my subjects. Whether it’s a flower, a place, a feeling, or an inanimate object—everything has life. The continuous line embodies the energy within while also reminding us of the simple, yet vital truth: that we are all connected during our brief time on earth.
We all need hope. We all need love. Moments of happiness and connection occur every day and I hope to reflect them in my art.
