My Envision of Arts

Becoming a painting artist is my true passion in life. Since then, my love affair with water-color has been continuously growing for more than 30 years.

Water color is unique. Both its clarity and lucidity are hard to achieve by other mediums. Besides, the outcome is sometimes so unpredictable that creates a specific challenge to each artist who dedicates his or her works on water color medium.

Through my works, I would kindly hope and share my sincere thoughts and feelings of all goodness in life with You.
