What happens if you combine the natural beauty of flowers with the unique talents of a visual artist?
We first noticed the stunning work of Lim Zhi Wei via social media and were mesmerised by how she can transform flowers that are already near perfect into flawless works of art. Lim Zhi Wei, who also goes by the pseudonym and childhood nickname Limzy, graduated from the Singapore Nanyang Academy of Fine Art (NAFA) in 2011 where she majored in western painting. Like most great artists, Limzy started at the early age of 4 and since then she has become a multi talented artist who is regarded highly throughout the Visual Arts world.
Limzy was born in the coastal city of Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia and moved to Singapore at the age of 16 where she first studied Fine Art. After Graduating Limzy began teaching art to children where she enjoyed the way in which children viewed the world differently to adults. Limzy first shared her artwork on social media that was meant for her family and friends overseas. Lucky for us, the pictures took off and everyone we talk to who has seen Limzy’s work loves it!
