About Priscilla

Priscilla has a passion for unrestricted art, longing to create art based on the feelings of living in the present. Starting with learning mosaic over a decade ago, falling in love with handicraft creations, the mentor has been delving into and developing various other forms of art. It wasn’t until recent years Priscilla met ‘fluid art’, and discovered styles like alcohol ink painting and acrylic pouring. With the hope of using art to develop the mind, body, and soul, the instructor had decided to establish Born to Be Art Studio to enable everyone to create their own artworks, experience the power of speaking through art and express emotions through colours.
導師愛好不受拘束的藝術，嚮往以活在當下的感受為創作靈感，從十多年前學習馬賽克起愛上手工藝創作，期間一直鑽研並開發其他更多創作。 直至近年遇上「流體藝術」，對酒精墨水畫和壓克力流體畫等創作風格愛不釋手。 導師希望透過藝術推動身心靈發展，於是創立 Born to Be Art Studio，讓每個人也能創作屬於自己的藝術品，感受用藝術來說話，用顏色來表達情感。
