An eternally curious artist, bridging the gaps between
illustration, ceramics, ecology, and advocacy


I'm based in the USA. I was adopted from China at
8 months old, but I've lived here since then.

I am autistic. Autism is a disability.

Yes, this is my art website! I believe that my art is not separable from the myriad aspects of who I am and what I stand for. This website is not only my art portfolio; it's my warrant for existing. I no longer want to be afraid of people finding out who I am - whether that's autistic, queer, obsessive, contemplative, tenacious, or anything else.

In my experience, people find out who I am eventually anyway. Being forthright about it - PROUD of it - is how I learn to be okay with myself, and find other people who want to do the same. It may not be professional, but it's what I am going to do, for my own sake.

Besides art, I like...

🕮 going to used book stores 🕮
⛾ making food and beverages from around the world ⛾
☀ hiking ☀
⚒ rockhounding ⚒
♠ playing poker ♠
🗀 organizing and documenting 🗀

While you're here, why not check out my art portfolios and animal facts?

About this site

This website (and life) is under construction. I am learning HTML, CSS, and Javascript and making many of the website assets from scratch. Bookmark this page to keep up with my progress!

Social media, braindead scrolling, "content", blatant advertisements, hidden advertisements, and general modern internet same-ness stink, and I wanted to set up my own little corner of the internet to shout into the void. Dig around, and you may find wonky code, games, jokes, rants, and personality. (Once you're done with my website, look around other Neocities sites for more awesome creative people.)

I also wanted to upload some resources I made to help myself, hoping that they can help other people. Most of these are grouped in the 'Autism' section.

Nothing on this website, whether words or images, has been intentionally generated by artificial intelligence.

Otherwise, I have tried my best to attribute anything I did not make myself to the proper authors. (Any fan art on the site is done in the spirit of tribute.)
