Drawing Everyday Life
I enjoy drawing everyday life to capture beautiful and meaningful memories. I love exploring and working with versatile mixed media; each art medium serves different expressive purposes.
I share some of my pen and ink drawings in the first part.
I love pen and ink drawing, and this remains one of the most relaxing for me. I have always appreciated, loved, and been grateful for our traditional Chinese hard pen calligraphy art. The deep-rooted foundation for writing complex Chinese characters helps develop sensitivity to stroke control and line expression in drawing. I prefer and am very used to direct drawing from initial observation. It is meditative and calming, allowing me to focus entirely on the moment.
Locations Where I Enjoy Collecting Books
I’ve created a series of pen drawings showcasing some of my favorite places in the San Francisco Bay Area. These locations have provided me with wonderful experiences and memories as I discover hidden book treasures. I’m glad to share my sketches to record my appreciation for these excellent places and good times.
A Walk in Alameda
The drawings and paintings I created in the "A Walk in Alameda" series were inspired by walking with my son in the Alameda neighborhood while living here.
