Welcome to my about me page! I hope you enjoy my art work and that you decide to browse through everything else that I have painted. I usually paint modern abstract designs, with an Asian flair.. using bold coloring and steady brushstrokes. I hope you enjoy my art work! To see much more art listed by me, please visit my other auctions. I recently closed my ebay store as the fees were getting too high. I have some exciting news! Recently TV chef Martin Yan has done a cooking seminar in a very upscale restaurant called Sungary Restaurant in Portland, Oregon. There he has noticed my art, and seen my art book. The manager of the restaurant has emailed me some photos of the event and Martin Yan even signed one of his signature cook books to me writing: ".. you are truly talented, a master of your craft." Coming from such an amazing culinary expert, this was a great complement indeed. Here are some photos of the event (Martin Yan is to the left, then it's the restaurant manager's wife and the restaurant manager Francis Koo, all standing in front of my painting):

ABOUT
THE ARTIST: I a self-representing artist and find working on eBay is so fun and rewarding! I met many great customers and am grateful to belong to this exciting community of sellers. My degree is not in art, but in Electrical Engineering. I found my artistic side was very stifled for many years when I was pursuing my bachelors degree and I find it very freeing (and exciting!!) to go back to my true calling! It is great to know how to build/design an autonomous robot, but right now I just want to paint :) Originally I was born in Switzerland and moved to Canada when I was a teenager. Switzerland is my favorite place on earth to be, and the colors of the flowers there is probably one of the reasons I love bold coloring in my paintings, yet fragile and delicate subjects. My grandmother is a great artist still living in Switzerland and I spent many hours just sitting there watching a great master at work. It is one of my fondest memories of my childhood. A few years ago I married my sweet Chinese husband, and got immersed in yet another amazing culture. The cultural influences on my paintings are therefore European, Canadian, and Asian, a wonderful mix with beautiful themes and colors. I
am also a member of EBSQ; an online community of
self-representing artists many of whom sell their art on
eBay. As for my
auctions, please don't hesitate to place a bid, I often
get emails after an auction ends and after an item is sold,
it is gone. They are original art pieces, not prints. I
love painting and always use the highest quality materials
for both the paints and my canvases. All my paintings
come protected against aging and UV light damage with
several coats of high quality varnish, and are signed and
dated by me in the back. I find inspiration everywhere
for my paintings, and especially love exploring different
color and texture combinations! Asian abstract art is
my favorite style at the moment. My art has been
bought by people all over the world, and can be found in
many offices, spas, bars, and distinguished private
collections with almost 450 paintings sold! Of course
all of my art is one of a kind and my style is recognizable
in everything I paint. I also accept commissioned work
gladly. Thanks
