Angela Pliego Shi - About me
“I feel it all before I know it, it’s all about the feeling, emotion. For me art is about catching the spark in your mind, the voice in your heart and finding a way to express to others.”
Angela stands out for her incredible versatility, she is an expert painter with delicate style and exquisite design, focusing on the combination of imagination and aestheticism. She is accomplished in numerous forms of realism, Art Deco, illustration, etc., combining multiple styles with oriental elements into her unique artistic language.
Angela was born in Beijing China, when she was three years old, her parents found she was able to concentrate on drawing for hours on end, and realised that art school was not too far away. There was a question always in her head while studying at art school; how to tell if someone is good at drawing? Is it about about skills? Is it about where you graduated? Is it about how many paintings you ever done? After a while she realised that anyone can achieve the enjoyment when drawing, what you feel matters more than what you do.
She believes that one of the most difficult things is to show you what I see if we see differently, it not only requires a little bit talent there to see different, but also needs skills, patience, and the right moment to bring it to reality, it's not just about art, it happens in any form of communication.
Angela has lived in China and Turkey, she resides in Germany with her family since 2017, even though life has taken here and there, she never gave up the brush in her hand, and the dreams in her heart. She worked 14 years in the marketing & retail, and luxury goods business, this job took her to many countries, and allowed her to experience different cultures.
