Illustrator and artist, Ho Lay Hoon - a.k.a Arty Guava - lives and works in Vancouver, Canada.
Memories of her childhood in Malaysia, nature, and dance are just a few sources of inspiration recognizable throughout her work. She is motivated by everyday visuals of people living in harmony with each other, people living in harmony with nature, people living in harmony with the environment — people being in harmony with themselves.
Featuring vibrant flowers, celebratory poses, and animals moving freely through the wild, her joyful designs are sprinkled with a hint of fantasy and convey a buoyant lust for life.
