My art is a dialogue between contrasts – light and dark, clarity and obscurity, emotional tension and relief. Rooted in my Chinese heritage and Western upbringing, each portrait delves beyond mere likeness to capture the essence of mood and feeling. My creative process is deeply human-centric, drawing from personal interactions.
