I first got to know Shin Ying through the @casualpoetlibrary . She has always been incredibly supportive of my books, and what touched me deeply was learning that she even purchased copies to place at the A&E Department of Changi General Hospital—a quiet but meaningful act of kindness.
Through her Instagram, I later discovered that Shin Ying @life_with_an_artitude is more than a medical doctor. She is also an avid artist who truly embraces life_with_an_artitude. She creates because it brings her joy—and that joy is evident in every piece she makes 🎨🖌️🩷
She also welcomes commissioned works, with all proceeds gifted to @worldvisionsg , which makes her art even more meaningful.
This Christmas, Shin Ying has created a beautiful series of hand-painted postcards, with proceeds once again going to World Vision. When I saw them on her IG, I instantly fell in love. I placed my order, and the cards have just arrived.
They are now going up on my Christmas tree.
I am calling it my tree of artworks.
I know it will be the centre of attention—and a conversation piece—for my guests this Christmas. More than decorations, these little artworks carry stories of generosity, creativity, and joy. And that, to me, is what the season is truly about ❤️🎄
