About the Artist...

I am a visual artist, specializing in Intuitive Painting living in Seattle, Washington.  I focus on creating intuitive painting collections that resonate with space optimizers and serve as ideal decor for home, office, and commercial spaces.

As I am tapping into spiritualty through art, I use acrylic medium to express myself on a canvas; depicts events that happened in my daily life.

In addition to creating intuitive painting collections, I am working on expanding some of my works into digital downloads for beginner artists: intuitive painting book, planners, as well as building an arts community.

My art career began when...

Summer 2017...

Promo Postcard 3

As I continue with my journey, my art has changed the past few years from imitating still-life objects to using more of my imagination to produce original work. For example, in this graphic design work, "Promo Postcard 3" was a typography project of one of my favorite icons in the arts; done in Adobe Illustrator and InDesign. This was displayed at Spot Coffee Elmwood for the Buffalo
Infringement Festival.

Journey Abroad...

Next, a part of my journey was spending time in Peru creating illustration work. For example, I worked on a Two-Point Perspective drawing of inside of a Peruvian home in Trujillo, Peru. The original drawing was done in drawing pencil in 2013. This illustration work was recreated with a blob brush tool in Adobe Illustrator.

Lessons from Art Tutoring...

Tea Pots
Tea Pots Still-Life

I was introduced into the art world in college. It was one of my major obstacles in my life. As a visual learner, I struggled with writing art critics or any essays in general. At the beginning, I struggled with drawing classes and my professor suggested for me to have an art tutor. I observed how the tutor broke down each object into basic shapes to form complex still-life objects.

I empower intuitive artists to build confident, soul-led painting collections that reflect their inner wisdom and elevate the spaces they inhabit. Through art, spiritual awareness, and community, I support creatives in navigating life, emotion, and growth—while creating meaningful decor for homes, offices, and commercial spaces.

I am a visual artist behind Occipicco Art. The name Occipicco Art came from a combination between occipital lobe (vision) part of the brain and picture books. We have a vision for something. If you look closely, all of my works are formed into a picture book. My brand refers to a connection of growth and nature and my love for visual appeal to art. For example, the way I use colors to express my feelings in art as well as visual communication in design.

Look closely.
Imaginative color schemes.
