Strata II Painting

The basic of my artistry skill was inspired by the colorful children story books and manga books that I read during my childhood, which then developed by trials and errors through time. My favorite subjects included the figurative, floral, animals and landscape. Recently, I choose to paint without brush but spatula, palette knives and bare fingers only. With actions of flickering, dashing, dripping, flinging...and more which I fondly called Kung-Fu style, I have painted some stories of the desert wildflowers. The Wildchild series is the newest addition which is about her exploration in the rainforest. I have combined tonalism, fluidity and splattering in one body to construct my stories and surprisingly how harmonized they are. The art process is an integral learning institute as well as an amusement for me. It helps me to see past the pains and negative things in my life. Art to me is inspirational, emotional, amusement and spiritually tranquility and I transpire these onto my artwork.
