“When teachers create, they inspire creation.”
My personal art practice keeps me grounded in the joy of creating and constantly reminds me of what it feels like to be a learner. I explore both traditional and digital art forms, allowing curiosity and experimentation to guide my process.
By continuing to make art, I model for my students the value of lifelong learning, creative resilience, and aesthetic exploration. Every artwork I create informs how I teach — whether it’s demonstrating a new technique, experimenting with digital tools, or exploring mixed-media compositions.
Over the years, I have enjoyed experimenting across a range of media — from acrylics and mixed media to digital illustration and handcrafted design
I completed short courses at LASALLE College of the Arts using my SkillsFuture credits:
Fine Arts – Acrylic Painting
Mixed Media Art
Digital Art with Procreate
These courses deepened my understanding of color, texture, and digital rendering, enriching my classroom demonstrations and lesson design.

I love exploring the possibilities of technology in artmaking. Using the Procreate app on my iPad, I experiment with layering, brush effects, and digital collage to express ideas that merge realism with imagination.
My digital artwork often serves as a springboard for classroom discussions on contemporary art, media literacy, and the creative process in the digital age.
