You have done illustrations, writing, and animation. What started all this?

I think it is when you have dreams and goals in life. There’s always an inspiration and motivation in your heart no matter how tiny it may seem. But that’s what helps me to boost my imagination and to start with everything that I am doing ever since.

When creating work such as Reaching out to the Mighty Savior, what prompted that?

I believe “Reaching out to the Mighty Savior” art piece is a Holy Spirit inspired. Basically, I drew that artwork for my client’s project last year. He has a song and he wanted to put that a story which would be done through many drawings and animation as part of worshipping the Lord Jesus, and “Reaching out to the Mighty Savior” is one of the drawings I drew for that animation.

Before I began the project, the first thing I did was praying and asking God to help me to deliver the message wonderfully through drawings. Also at that time, I was still very new to ‘semi-realism art style’ and I was so worried that I might not meet my client’s expectations. I knew it would be difficult for me…But along the way, I believe God was there with me… like He was my teacher. I felt I didn’t do the drawings all by myself. For me, it felt like He was at my side and He led me and helped me during the progress. He filled my heart with such joy, inspiration, motivation, and admiration in order for me to keep going. It boosted my imagination more and helped me to picture the concept in mind to convey the message beautifully by drawing them. Until then I know I pleased God too with my illustrations and animation when I received my client’s good feedback about it, and that inspires me more and more.
