"At the moment, I am involved with natural forms - e.g., plants, trees, rocks, sea, and water in lakes and waterfalls - portraying form with movement and space and all the cycles in nature, e.g., the four seasons and night and day. The media I use are watercolor and acrylic on canvas, often using cut up pieces of my work as collage. Having been born in Hong Kong and studied at the Slade School of Fine Art, I like to exploit traditiona­l Chinese use of the brush and the oriental use of space combined with a Western individual interpreta­tion of form, light, and color."
