Hi! I am Yen, a watercolor artist based in the Philippines.

My art journey started in 2018. Painting was a pastime for me, a way to relax and a way to release stress. (Usually, I paint after my 9 to 6 job as an accountant haha!)

Florals are my usual subjects - wreaths, bouquets, everything that involves leaves and flowers. I am self-taught. I learned from video tutorials on the internet. With constant practice (and after moments of self-doubt, failures and frustrations), I later on developed my skill and discovered my own style of painting.

I share my artworks on Instagram @sincerelyyen. It was where I discovered a deeper purpose for painting - to be God's instrument in touching lives of other people through art.

It is because of my desire to share my passion that I pursued conducting private and group workshops. I have been teaching floral watercolor since 2019 in the Philippines and finally around the world through this online class. I could say, teaching art is by far my favorite and my most fulfilling "job."

Finally, the most important thing I learned in my creative journey is this: Our gifts and talents are purposely created NOT just for ourselves but to inspire, encourage and help those around us, too.

Happy to share my passion with you!

Sincerely,

Yen
