Three may keep a secret, if two of them are dead.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:





about me: in short, I am simply an individual who enjoys and appreciates all forms of art. My friends know me as someone with an extremely sick sense of humor and a healthy dose of sarcasm. I enjoy being with people, but I absolutely treasure my personal space as well. An extroverted introvert if you will. I grew up in the Pacific Northwest in a place called Portland, Oregon. The coast, forests and mountains were my favorite getaways there. Now I am residing in Kuala Lumpur and have been enjoying a different pace of life, along with the weather and terrain. My affinity towards art and design started at a young age, and I've always loved exploring the various forms of art, or what I'd like to call the visual history of human nature and expression.

my work: there's always a constant repertoire of things that I've been experimenting with, whether it is related to graphic design, illustration, or my recent love affair with photography.

1. The Essential Helen , 2. He Wonders , 3. Lost in Time , 4. Orange Rekindled , 5. She Whispered Softly , 6. Forget Me Not , 7. canto flamenco , 8. The Inner Light , 9. Twilight Thievery

words to share:

Nothing is ever accomplished by a reasonable man. - George Bernard Shaw

Art attracts us only by what it reveals of our most secret self. - Jean Luc Godard

The work of art may have a moral effect, but to demand moral purpose from the artist is to make him ruin his work. - Goethe

All art is a revolt against man's fate. - Andre Malraux

Nothing is so poor and melancholy as art that is interested in itself and not the subject. - George Santayana

One has a nose. The nose scents and it chooses. An artist is simply a kind of pig snouting truffles. - Igor Stravinsky
