Artist Statement
As an avid tea drinker, I upcycled and transformed used tea bags into miniature pieces of artwork. This collection of ink and watercolour sketches features easily recognizable buildings, landmarks, and sceneries around the Coquitlam and Tri-Cities area.
Biography
Born and raised in the Metro Vancouver area and currently residing in the Tri-Cities, Dilys Huang has enjoyed doing art since at a young age. She was part of the IB Art Programme during high school to further pursue her creative journey and later studied urban planning in university. With her background and interest in planning, her ink and watercolour sketches tend to focus on buildings, cities, and the urban landscape. She draws much of her inspiration from what she sees and places she has been to or travelled to.
Besides working on her own art, Dilys enjoys being involved in the local community. This includes exploring the city and doing urban sketching with other fellow planners and sketchers. She is also a member of the Blackberry Artists’ Society.
