Search
It was copied from my fuzzy photo, taken in Brookfield Zoo in Chicago, 1995. I used a 600-mm mirror lens in a snowy day, so the shot was shakey, yet I could not throw this piece of slides away for its composition.
I throwed a snow ball in front of the tiger, and the tiger swept the ball with its right palm, and then looked up to search the piture, me with the camera waiting.
I am glad that I can complete it into a focused painting to memorize this composition.

This is my little daughter with the bottle in her hand. She is adorable at the age of 2. The reason I started to do oil-paintings, because I wish to leave something good in this short life, besides my DNA in my daughters. I am age of 40, and wish I will have time to make more paintings.

This is a painting I copied from my old slides. It was taken from Michaelangelo's sculpture in Florence. It was a great shot already, and I am learning the skill of oil painting.
It was a white and cold Marble sculpture, but I painted it into a warm tone with Red, Orange, and Yellow White.

I love to draw and paint since I was little, but the arts is only my hobby. I am an amature.
3 years ago, I finally got into Friday Night session on Oil Painting class with a professional painter as teacher, Mr. Ku Her-Chung 顧何忠。 It is a lovely journey so far.
Einstein is always my favorite subject. I have done it with pensil and charcoal. This was my first practice on oil painting. I love the richness of the oil paints and its durability. This one is not so great yet, and I have to continue to paint to improve.
