This is my abstract oil painting series "Lion dance", including red, yellow, white and black. Lion dance is a form of traditional dance in Chinese culture and other Asian countries in which performers mimic a lion's movements in a lion costume to bring good luck and fortune. The lion dance is usually performed during the Chinese New Year and other Chinese traditional, cultural and religious festivals. It may also be performed at important occasions such as business opening events, special celebrations or wedding ceremonies, or may be used to honor special guests by the Chinese communities. [Source: Internet] Lion dance has long history that can be traced back around A.D. 500, more than 1500 years ago. It has major influence on culture of east Asian. Nowadays, you can find different types of lion dance in China, Japan, Korea, Singapore, Indonesia and many more countries. In the beginning I am not sure how many pieces should be in this series. But after studying loads of photos I choose four color theme, white, black, red and yellow as they are the most popular colors for lion dance costume. I hope you enjoy this series. And please feel free to contact me with any question. Although I have tried my best to match the color of digital profile and the actual product, the color might still vary depending on different monitor settings. Please be aware of this fact. Thank you.

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.
