A Lady Blue and A Blue Lady

  • 2024 Silver Key in Scholastic Art and Writing Award 

  • 2023 High merit award in celebrating Art Competition and a published artist.

My cat’s name is Lady blue, a truly self-loving cat but she holds great significance to me. Being the carelessly sassy living being that she is, my pet has transformed me from once a self-conscious person to a girl that is confident and fabulous. She is my inspiration to live for myself not for others. This mixed media piece pays tribute to her for her authenticity. Sometimes, we learn more from our pets than our human relationships. The impact and importance of a pet is underrated, for my cat can inspire me so much more than humans. She made me realize that the main strategy of living happily is to not care what others think.
