I started learning how to paint in my teens when I attended art classes at an art centre taught by Calvin Chua, an experienced Malaysian fine artist.

After that, it was self-taught throughout my entire creative journey.

• As a child, probably just colour pencils and pens on paper.
• Later on as a teen I started exploring with watercolour and poster colour.
• It was only when I was in college, that I started using fabric paints for fabric painting.
• When I moved on to decorative crafts, I...

My love for art started as a child. I can’t remember the exact age, but as far as I know (or was told at least), I was a natural as a toddler.
