I'd tell my friends, "I don't need a reason to create, I just need Christmas."

It's true.

Christmas has been my favorite time of the year ever since I could remembering anything, even if Christmas in Taiwan doesn't mean winter wonderland. To me, it's about that tree I would always decorate with my little sister, that anxious feeling waiting for Santa's letter and to open the presents under the tree. It's about love, friendship, spending that extra quality time with people you care about (and care about you too), and telling them how much you appreciate them.

The Holiday Collection was born as a combination of my love for simplicity, watercolor, and of course, them trees! The Christmas Forest is to honor my precious memory decorating that tree in the living room when I was still a kid in Taiwan. I wish I could have more trees, I wish I had a forest of them! 

The forest series was later being featured in one of the holiday collections on Society6.
