Self Philosophy in Art :
Painting in My life's milestoen for every painting of mine symbolies my joy, tears, and anticipations in different stages of my life. I am not particilar about what paint, or what materials to use. However, I Love observations especially obseerving the forgotton species. Hence, The Theme for my recent paitings centres on the daily visible species or the forgotton objects like walls, windows, Slabs and certain types of flora and fauna. The settings are both abstract and authentic. Apart from that, I also fancy using insects such as ants, bees etc to activate and enrich my art. This is probably due to the fact that I have engrossed in ink-wash (Chinese painting) for years, and henceforth frame my thoughts and presentations.
