"Drapery Study" --- Sold

I really admire academic art, but it is not been taught in most of academies. Isn't that ironic?

"Rose Concerto"

This is my first try of doing a larger painting with a violin. The feeling is quite different from the small ones I did a while ago.

This is another my "New Age" painting. Thank you all for so many great comments on my blog. We had a wonderful communication going on. I think that is the art all about. I will keep exploring my potential. At the mean time, I will have my sanity checked all the time. Now my still life stand has been fixed. It is more flexible, and I have more freedom.

"Three Pots" --- Sold

My still life stand collapsed accidentally yesterday. I had to hack a setup to paint. This accident was a good thing actually. It forced me coming out of my comfort zone and trying compositions I never did before. How do you like this one?

"Plums and Apple"

Recently, I received multiple emails asking about my larger paintings. From now on, I will paint larger paintings maybe once a week and post them in my blog. I will continue do my small paintings as usual.

"Delicate Glass" --- Sold

Painting glass is so exciting. I was amazed the potential that the oil color can present. It is such a enjoyment to see light traveling through the refractive index modulated space (I mean class).
