Who I Am

Hello, I’m Halimah — Hali works too!

I grew up between Brunei, England, and the U.S., and I’m now based in Brooklyn, NY. Living in such different places has shaped my artistic style and deepened my appreciation for capturing moments that matter—whether I’m live sketching at a wedding, designing custom stationery, or creating bespoke memorabilia.

Art has always been my passion, from childhood doodles to earning a BA in Studio Arts from Hamilton College. My work is all about celebrating life’s moments—turning fleeting memories into lasting keepsakes. Whether it’s a quick sketch at a wedding, an heirloom pet portrait, or an invitation suite that sets the tone for your big day, my goal is to create something meaningful that you’ll treasure.

I specialize in thoughtful, energetic art that captures personality and emotion. Beyond the artwork itself, I focus on making the process seamless, collaborative, and fun. Whether you're marking a milestone, honoring a loved one, or simply celebrating the everyday, I’m here to bring your vision to life in a way that feels uniquely yours.
