Since she moved to Edmonton, Alberta starts a new life with her husband, the change of living environment, landscapes, and nature inspiring her in every aspect to be a true artist. It created unique opportunities and freedom to stimulate her creativity by using the visual medium to express her vision and observation.

Aeris enjoys exploring various mediums to unfold her unique character through her artworks: bold and vivid colors in acrylic, ethereal mood in watercolor, black and white ink pen drawing. Most of her creations are inspired by the beauty of the Canadian landscape, animals, streetscapes, and architecture. In Aeris’s paintings, you can find her inner peacefulness, joyfulness, and uniqueness.

Aeris’s Artist Statement

As a self-taught visual artist, and registered social worker in Alberta. I was born and raised in both Eastern and Western cultures. Cultural background influences my perspective of life as well as my Art.

My visual art is a journey of self-exploration. They are representing the integration between my inner peacefulness and passion. My paintings and drawings were taken from the essence of the landscapes, and surrounding objects. I redefined them and gave them a new identity while keeping the soul of the land and surrounding object. All my visual arts have their own character with no duplication, a medium can be acrylic, watercolor, or ink pen. You can find some of my paintings presented in vivid, striking color palette emphasizing the passion of life. Also, you can find some of my paintings presented in the subtle, soft color palette emphasizing the ethereal and delicate atmosphere.

My artworks have been exhibiting in Galleries, hospitals, Art Completion, Art Walks in Edmonton, and the surrounding area. They can be found in collections in North America and Asia.
