I am an artist creating cat illustrations in the San Francisco Bay Area.
A lot of my pieces come from my experience of being a wanderer and a traveler in this world, often times channeled through cat attitude and cat energy. I am particularly fond of picking up fleeting moments of feelings and tiny emotions that we may overlook in our busy, busy everyday life.
My art journey began in 2020 when the pandemic hit and we were in lockdown. With so much time on hand, I was able to just sit down and draw a little something everyday. It was a thoughtful process for me to stay present and appreciative of the small moments while all these big things were happening in this world. My cats also became the main characters of my creations as they provide me with such great inspirations, both emotionally and creatively.
I hope that with my work, I can provide a little moment or a small space for those looking at it to take a breather and be validated. Whether it be a little laugh or a little sentiment, I hope that they bring a little color to you today!
