About Me: I am an artist from China, I am a retired art teacher, I am 60 years old now, I spend my spare time in painting.
I like both oil paintings and Chinese paintings, I did not have much formal training in paintings, I am self-taught, for example I have no training at all in Chinese paintings, but I enjoy experimenting with water and colour on paper, which can give very unexpected results.
I like oil painting for the richness of its colours, I love to cover my canvas with a profusion of colours in their dream-like imageries. I am often inspired by nature, but I like to draw animals too. I enjoy imagining myself in a surrealistic world. All my paintings are not just simple copy of the real world, they are integrations of the real and the imaginative.
