Welcome to My Colourful World!
Hi! I am Olivia - a watercolour artist, teacher, and lifelong believer in the magic of creativity.
When I’m not painting, you’ll find me chasing after my three year old daughter Melody, laughing with my wonderfully supportive husband Thuong, or trying to keep my mischievous cats, Latte and Espresso, from ‘helping’ with my art work ฅ^•ﻌ•^ฅ
Watercolour isn’t just my medium-it’s my way of connecting with joy, sharing stories, and reminding everyone that you are an artist, no matter where you start.
Come with me, let’s create something beautiful together!
My Journey with Watercolour
Artistic Roots:
Born in China, I fell in love with art early, studying traditional Chinese Watercolour and calligraphy at Jinan Leda Art College. Those years taught me to see the world through colour and rhythm- lessons I now bring to every brushstroke.
In 2024, I celebrated my latest exhibition at London’s Sea Containers along the Thames, a dream come true! And yes, my very first exhibition years ago in China my hometown still holds a special place in my heart🐾
Teaching Philosophy:
Here’s the truth: Everyone is an artist!
When you paint, you’re not just mixing colours - you’re choosing how to express your joy, calm, or curiosity. A bold splash of red might be your laughter; a gentle wash of blue, your quiet reflection.
That’s the power of watercolour. Unlike learning an instrument or mastering a sport, you don’t need years of practice to create something uniquely yours. With a few brushes, paper, and a splash of courage, you can paint a masterpiece that no one else could ever replicate - because it’s yours.
My classes are about more than techniques.
They’re about unlocking the artist already inside you!
100% of profits from our events and classes fund art kits and lessons for less fortunate children and seniors in our local community, helping spread the joy of watercolour.
Why Watercolour?
Instant Creativity: Pick up a brush and play - no complicated setups or expensive tools.
Express yourself: Your brushstrokes carry your energy. No right or wrong - just you, in that moment, creating something unique yours.
Mindful Escape: Painting let's you pause, breathe, lose yourself in flow, watch colours bloom and blend. It’s therapeutic.
