My art is generally abstract in nature, and works with the concept of transformation while hinting at what lies beneath, through the power of suggestion.  I work on an emotive level that emphasises the sensations viewers are left with.  From working in pure line, form and colour, to my detailed drawings and paintings, viewers can’t help but think there is something more…..something beyond the immediate that evokes latent emotional reactions in their own psyche.

I aim to capture every essence of light in painting through my paint brush.
My paintings represent the human life style from different part of world. In addition, I express the emotions and feelings of a subject through the application of light effects in the painting. Usually, my light sources for the subject in paintings are light from candle, fireworks, electric lights, sunlight, neon lights and etc.
Most of my paintings are subjected to portraits, cityscape and human figure which are painted through Water Color media.  I have always discovered joy in rendering every small detail of light effects and creating contrast with mere colors in paintings.
Through the light effects on my paintings, I cannot only depict the emotions like joy, celebration, patience, hope, rush, sorrow and worries pertinent in human life, but also project my own feeling and state of mind.   This, to me, is the most important thing I have realized so far. It is amazing how I can amalgamate the details of my own inner self with the nuances of the subject’s expression created by effect of light.

This series of works reveals my Chinese sensibilities in my approach to contemporary Western abstraction. My paintings hover between nature and abstraction, occasionally slipping into the reminiscence of a Chinese landscape.

Visual inspiration came from the ebb and flow of tides, calm pools, stormy seas, and the aftermath of rain.

Color in my work is energetic and emotional.  Fascinated with figure and face, the layers of color in my work are representative of the many depths and layers – both physical and emotional – of each portrait subject.  I am heavily inspired by everyday people.  It may be their culture, life story, or simple facial expression that inspires my next painting.  When I start a painting, I never quite know what the exact outcome will be.  Throughout the painting process, I am constantly making decisions and changes to the details, textural quality and color choices on the canvas.  In creating larger-than-life, colorful paintings, it is my goal to provide the viewer with more than a “portrait”, but a visually pleasing piece full of energy and relatable stories.
