Statement

I am a straightforward person, do not like complex and conceal, even if somewhile we have to do it.

My concept of creating is to first grasp the creative motivation and passion, than translate into a scene, replacement and decorate some or other moment. Shape, color, material, I want every part and element all speaking in my work. Works always more power than language.

Composition of picture always the first thing I think about in my work, I consider a total effect is the earliest point to catch people’s eyes. From my own aesthetical perspective I like plump formation and succinct line, sometime I am extreme, because contrast can increase work’s dramatic effect that is the second point what I care, fine detail can increase work’s difficulty and atmosphere can give work more space of view and admire.
