Welcome to OMe Haus Studio
OM = Union of the Mind, Body and Spirit
​
I'm Lisa I-Kwang Hwang (b. 1971 in Chiayi, Taiwan) based in Joshua Tree, CA, USA. I work FT with IBM in Finance/Accounting (BS in Accounting 1993 and MBA in Finance 1998 from Drexel University in West Philadelphia, PA) with a 27 year career and 24 years remote (yr. 2000) when it was dial up internet. I became a mother at the age of 24 born in December 1995. I became a single mother when I was 29 years old. For over 25 years, I have explored my creative side as a hobby PT. From 2009-2011, I had a creative business called Light Mosaics (mosaic decor, jewelry) and Functional Finds (jewelry holders, vintage jewlery, steampunk jewelry) in Philadelphia, PA. I sold on Etsy, local art markets in Fishtown and local consignment shops. in 2011, I shifted my focus to my son’s golf dreams for a decade (he is 28 yrs old now). I'm a part-time creative studio that experiments with many forms of art styles and mediums. In the end of 2018, I settled in Joshua Tree and started creating again. I went public with my art in May 2022 and had my first SOLO show at 29 Palms Art Gallery in 29 Palms, CA in December 2022. My current works are whimsical interpretations of the beauty of mother earth. I have collectors from around the world.
I'm currently in remission as of 01.27.2024 from Stage 1 GIST cancer which is a rare tissue cancer in your GI tract. I was diagnosed 2 years ago from a colonoscopy. But my mutuation has a 95% chance of reoccurrence so I have to stay on oral chemotherapy medicine called Imatinib for who knows how long. My oncologists is currently saying 10 years.
