Ramos

I am Marjorie Ramos, 27 years old, and currently residing in London, United Kingdom.

I originally came from the Philippines before I started working as a Registered Nurse in a Cancer Hospital. I am the middle child out of the three children of my parents, Rosemarie Ramos and Jovencion Ramos. Since November 2018 I have been living my life away from my family and staying with my partner in our humble flat. Since I was a child, I started to love making artworks mainly portraits of different people I met. Started doing art commissions for other people while studying and involving myself to school journalism as a cartoonist.

Pursuing a career in art or photography was not a satisfactory career on our culture hence my choices back then was influenced by the people around me, mainly my parents. Although my father was a draftsman by degree and a self-taught artist as well, the social bias of earning from a white-collar job was to pronounced. This brought me eventually to my profession, which I am very proud of, appreciating what is around me in a very simple way. Connecting myself with my patients, taking care of their body and wellbeing was the turning point of my life. I started relating my passion to what makes my life right now fulfilling.

And here I am today, sharing my talent as I fulfill my sworn duty. And I know for a fact that this journey of mine will make my old self proud and the new me complete.
