Cindy Phua

With no formal training in art, Cindy Phua is a young adult who has shown a talent in drawing and painting since young. She worked as a nail artist for over 10 years before turning to art as a form of therapy when she was struggling with mental health issues and severe anxiety, rendering her unable to work.

Through the process, she re-discovered her passion and her eye for detail. Cindy’s paintings are her view of a hyper-realistic, dream-like world where colours and nature collide. Her paintings are her tangible expressions of hope, peace and happiness; the same feelings she hopes to bring to those who view them. It is Cindy’s dream and aspiration to be an artist and to also advocate for mental health issues through her own experience.
