I’m someone who has been very passionate about art since a young age. I really enjoy exploring my sense of creativities by participated in different art competitions such as Young Archie, Young Mosman, and City of Ryde Youth Creative Competition. Receiving finalists and winning awards in these competitions allowed me to share a piece of my creativity with the world.

 

Artwork Statement:

 This is a painting that depict a photo I took on the way home from the blue mountain. As we were driving down the road, the sun is setting which creates this radiating flare of orange and burnt sienna on the branches of these gumtrees by the side of the road.  The bright sunburnt colour contrasting with the blue and purple dimmed sky resonates with my feeling during the trip, as it was both very exciting and calm.
