Hi, there – Peace Be Upon You!

I’m Siti.

I’m a realist painter and pastelist based in Los Angeles. I started my art journey as a commissioned portrait artist in Malaysia.

However, I quit painting portraits after I found out that painting portraits of humans and animals is forbidden in Islam. 

I wanted to please God so I quit portrait painting cold turkey. 

For almost a decade, I stopped painting with pastels. I ventured into other kinds of creative outlets while homeschooling my children.

In 2018, I started painting again with pastels and haven’t looked back since. My current body of work is realistic paintings of nature’s beauty and still lifes.

I’m on a mission — to help my collectors find their inner peace through art. I believe inner peace will be achieved when one has a deeper connection with God by really looking at His creations.

I hope my work not only beautifies your home but also brings you peace.
