Born and raised in Singapore, I made the move
to Seattle, Washington in 2001 with hopes of an
exciting, new life filled with different challenges
and possibilities. Although I was, at the time, more
focused towards settling into a suitable job and a
new family, it wasn’t long before everything fell
into place with all those things that I had dreamed
of. And it wasn’t very long either before I made
some new friends - friends who helped me shape my
destiny further in this new land I now passionately
call home.
I have always known I had some artistic talents. I
started to enjoy experimenting with different styles
and motifs when creating gifts for my friends. It
was the unexpectedly wonderful and encouraging
reception which everyone showed over these odd
pieces that eventually motivated me to open my
shop called RAIMESTIQUE on Etsy in April 2012. These
were the beginnings of my new venture in the art
industry.For my work, I love bold, beautiful flowers,
landscapes and abstracts. My artwork portrays clean,
fresh lines with a sense of passion and determination,
derivatives of how I look at life. I chose oil or acrylic
in vibrant colors and using brushes and knife for my
mediums. The artist who captured my passion for
bold brilliant colors and whimsical style is Miguel
Freitas. Love his works!
I am beginning to also enjoy creating landscape
art after watching Bob Ross on TV and I love his
techniques. He inspires me a lot.
I am a multi-faceted artist who enjoys writing
poetry and my memoirs as well as creating beautiful
ceramic and fused glass art but my main focus is on
my paintings.
