Hi, my name is Shai Coggins. I’m an artist – writer – consultant who migrated to South Australia, after living in Singapore, USA, and the Philippines. I have a Masters degree in Applied Psychology and a four-year Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology.
As an artist, my main focus is on portraying my paintings with bright, bold colours matched with lively textures and forms.
Since I have the propensity to integrate my varied experiences, training, and background in my paintings, I also delve into writing and psychology when making art.


Dear Shai,
Amor Trinidad accidentally openned your webpage and happily
forwarded it to us. Anyway, I just want you to know that
I am happy for your success! I am now a priest serving the
local church of Bikol. I am praying that God may bless your
endeavors and creativity!
Fr. Nono

Hi Shai,
I’m a friend of your brother Arnold. I just wanted to say that
you are so inspiring! I’m starting to do freelance writing here
in the Philippines, but I’m still hesitant to go full time since
I’m not sure what’s out there for me. I hope to one day be as
brave and successful as you.
God bless you. All the best!
