| An artist & illustrator whose work centers on storytelling rooted in cultural memory and everyday emotion. Her artistic journey began with simple curiosity and a love for capturing the essence of surroundings. With a love for hand-drawn techniques and tactile materials, she captures the quiet emotional landscapes of people, places, and passing time. Through soft, nostalgic visuals, her illustrations invite a slower pace—leaving behind something personal, heartfelt, and human. | |
