Visual Art – Melbourne

Am a self-taught artist, art has been my passion from a very young age, and recently I have reconnected back to it. I am greatly inspired by zentangle, which is an easy-to-learn method of creating beautiful images from repetitive patterns. I find them very interesting and relaxing, and am a strong believer that it reduces stress levels and improves focus and creativity. Most of my artworks are monochrome art done using gel pens, permanent markers, with occasional use of coloured gel pens and markers, watercolours, and acrylics. My interest lies in mandalas, folk art, doodling, and experimenting to keep creating variations in these art forms.
