I like learning how to make different types of art for fun! here are some things i have done:

• painting traditional oil paintings
• drawing anime-style fanart
• leading the design and fabrication of a large-scale wooden hulu
• studying Sino-Arabic calligraphy since 2022 under the tutelage of Haji Noor Deen 米广江
• making a lotus pod sculpture from foam and fiberglass

I had a lot of fun as a part of the 2025 cohort for ARTogether's Artist Mentorship Hub and Residency.
