EthnoMondain (Portraits)
As an introvert, I am often troubled by my limited articulation skills to truly pay compliments to those wonderful and beautiful souls who impact on my life. Alternatively and fortunately, painting becomes my language to express my feeling about their stories. I sometimes portrait the same character in different media, which interestingly exposes something new and different. Additionally, during my travels around the globe, I have encountered people from many walks of life. They too are a tremendous source of inspiration for me as an artist. I am intrigued by the rich art culture of the regions, that has the capacity to add so many layers of complexity to the residents I chose to portray.
