about
contact

born in indonesia and raised in canada, my work explores the themes of mystery, histories, growth/change, perception and time; i'm into hidden character and the appreciation of beauty over time.
some of my imagery may seem familiar as it’s found in the cluster of things you see when you close your (and my) eyes at night.  i am driven to capture the hearts of the intrigued.

i'm a graduate of sheridan institute’s first BAA illustration class.

currently residing in los angeles, california. i am available for commission and freelance work.
