| 关于此艺术家 |
My work is characterized by brilliant colors and intense detail. My specialties are botanical and figurative imagery, calligraphy, and story-telling. Art lets me explore and express the things I love: nature, music, literature, history, languages and spirituality. I like to combine ideas and story with beautiful forms, in the hopes that my work can be appreciated on an intellectual level as well as a sensual one.
