Artist's Statement
"It is optimal that an artist's work has easily identifiable characteristics. Based on this goal, I have been working very hard to achieve a style that shows traditional Chinese brush paintings with a contemporary feel. That has been my focus for the past ten years. I feel comfortable to say that I have reached the goal of having a unique personal style in my more mature pieces of work. These paintings reveal integration of Heaven and Earth, as often mentioned in Chinese philosophy. It gives feeling of beauty and peacefulness, which is commonly appreciated."
