ABOUT THE ARTWORK
Some experiments show that cuttlefish tries so hard to merge itself with a checkerboard surrounding pattern. I choose octopus eventually because its tentacles create more curves. If it was a cuttlefish then it would be just an oval shape in the background. But the thing is, even this creature can blend in 100%, it should have shadow under certain lighting conditions. In black squares I try to eliminate the edges. In white squares, the tiles have cool tone and the octopus has warm tone. So even the non-living thing and the living thing are all white, they are different white color. Although I tried my best to match the digital image the same as actual painting but the color may vary due to different monitor and monitor settings. Please be aware of this fact. Hope you enjoy this one. :D

My paintings are an outlet to express the imagination I have inside my head that I can not put into words. After trying many mediums, I always find myself coming back to paint and brushes. In my current artistic practice, I use oil paint and mainly create portraits of mythical creatures and animals transfixed in the shifting colors of seascapes and landscapes. There is a natural spirit and magic to these creatures and their energy draws me in. Choosing to paint these creatures as real living wildlife rather than abstractions, I use bold and vivid colors to express the imaginary intertwined with reality, finding magic between the seams. Using a saturated color palette, I create bold and striking imagery, contrasted between foreground and background, subject and landscape, and light and darkness. Weaving their bodies and the surface of the landscape into each other through organic forms and flowing brush strokes, I find beauty, strength and innocence in these creatures that reflect my inner world.
