Statement:
The subjects of my painting are from nature and portraits of peoples life. I especially love to paint subjects which not only catch my eye but touch my heart. When the colors and textures of the paint travel from my brush to the canvas, I express harmony in the dualities of stillness and movement, indifference and passion, sleeping and awakening, the warmth of sensitivity and coolness of apathy.
