With each Spring the warbler brings his friends to sing their songs outside my window. I like to paint warblers they are very colorful and cute. Hope Spring comes soon.

Returning Home

3.5" x 5" Watercolor
SOLD

We've had so much snow this year, everything is blanketed in white, I didn't see or hear the little stream when I went out for a walk. The stream that flows under the stone bridge in this painting is like the one I pass by, I am also followed by this cute black dog. This painting is result of my walking.

4" x 6" watercolor
SOLD


Cool moments in the summer are a wonderful time to reflect on the rhythms of life. There were many times when I would sit at pond's edge and paint such scenes. Now, in the grip of winter, this type of coolness is appreciated.

In China there are many bamboo forests. We enjoy walking through them on the fallen bamboo leaves. Especially in the high mountains, the air and the bamboo are so fresh, the whole world is peaceful.

3.5" x 5" Watercolor
SOLD

All these years no matter where I live, my friends always joke that I am a painting machine. It sounds funny until 2 weeks ago my right arm decided it needed a rest, I realize it was sending me a message--not only take more time off but also shouldn't take everything for granted in life.
