The response from collectors was deeply encouraging, with several works finding new homes during the fair.

Over the past few weeks, I had the incredible opportunity to showcase my work in two major Parkwest Gallery auctions: a live online event on January 25th, where I painted “Cherry Blossoms” in real time, and an exclusive VIP art auction aboard the Celebrity Beyond cruise in the Caribbean.

A Leap that changed everything
5 years ago, I made the hardest and most beautiful decision of my life — I left behind a corporate career to pursue my art full-time. I was afraid. I had no art degree. No industry ties. I was a newcomer in every sense. But my mother’s early encouragement and my husband’s steady belief in my talent gave me wings. My first show was modest. But it filled my heart. I realized that day, art would be more than my calling. It would be my life. Now, 5 years later, I have shown across cities, joined galleries, met collectors around the world, and grown as an artist and a person. This blog is my thank-you note to everyone who stood by me.

Smart Collectors Avoid This AI Art Mistake
In a world flooded with trends and tech, one timeless truth stands tall: original art holds its value — and then some. While headlines swirl around NFTs and AI-generated images, the real numbers are quietly telling a different story. Over the past 30 years, fine art has appreciated at an average of 11.4% annually, outpacing even the S&P 500. That’s not hype — that’s hard data. Yet, as algorithms begin to dabble in creativity, a critical question emerges: can machines make meaningful art? The market — and seasoned collectors — seem to think not. Beyond the buzzwords and auction headlines lies a fundamental truth about value: it’s rooted in rarity, intention, and human connection. And when it comes to investing in art, those qualities are non-negotiable.
