Su Zhiwei
Zhiwei is an aspiring artist from Singapore. She is graduating with a Diploma in Fine Arts from LASALLE College of the Arts, specialising in drawing. Her main focus is drawing realistic animals and the issue of animal cruelty around the world. Zhiwei’s realistic animal drawings vary from black and white colour schemes to vibrant colours, with pen and pencil as her media. Her research also explores other topics such as self-identity. She seeks to move away from realism to find comfort in art-making through other media.
Apart from art practice, she is a self-taught artist for nail care and runs a home-based business using her drawing techniques for intricate paintings where nails become her canvases.
