ABOUT THE ARTIST

tam loves drawing girls with pink hair, seahorses, giraffes, and swirly, twirly trees. she studied music and art in holland for a while before running off to london where she developed her photography skills. she spent 10 years in london before moving to sri lanka for 2.5 years. it was there where her love for art journalling blossomed. her art became increasingly more mixed media, messy, complicated and layered which is how she likes it now. at present she is a student of non-violent communication and lives with her partner, the magical andy, in brighton, england where she creates mixed media art daily. she likes pink bubblegum, avocados, humour and kindness.
