BFA in Digital Art and Animation 2021 graduate from DigiPen Institute of Technology (Singapore campus). I seek to create impactful and charming characters, worlds and stories through my art.

It has always been my dream to contribute creatively to videogames and other sorts of creative mediums like music album art. I also hope to realise my own original universe, "Big Swan", into a videogame, graphic novel or into a series of music videos/animatics one day.

"Big Swan", my original IP, originated from my own comic series way back in 2005 when I was 8. Starring my own cartoon bird characters, along with a few other animal characters. It is my dream to realise Big Swan as an action-adventure platformer game, possibly incorporating elements from my favourite game genres (e.g. Metroidvania (exploration) / brawling / run-and-gun shooting / precision platforming) for each playable character. Probably have to simplify it but that's a rough outline for now.

I have a HUGE respect and admiration for indie creators - be they artists, game developers, musicians or writers. I guess it's mainly because I grew up playing a lot of (obscure but awesome) indie games, and only got sucked into my first popular fandom (Sonic the Hedgehog) quite late compared to most people. ^v^;

Some stuff about me:

- Has lame punny sense of humour

-HATES seemingly innocent things which turn out to be sinister *cough* Happy Tree Friends *cough* ...people call me innocent or pure lol.

-Dislikes blood & gore. I avoid playing games with gore (with the exception of TF2, because it is highly stylized and cartoonish that I can bear the gore just enough to play the game).

-Fractal art is the only art form which I detest (to the point of being fearful when looking at it) >_<

-Favourite animals: Birds (especially waterbirds), fish, exotic animals.

-Favourite colours: Orange, blue, green, purple

-Favourite videogame genres: Action-adventure, Platformer, Metroidvania, Beat-em-up / Brawler, Run-and-gun shooters, class-based shooters (DISLIKES: turned-based games, overly strategic games, tactical shooters, MOBAs)

-Favourite music genres: Electro / Drum 'n' Bass (DnB) / Future Bass / Electro Swing / Trance / Electronica / Glitch Hop / String instrument music (especially the cello) / Symphonic electronic music
