Hong and myself were having dinner, we talked about the figuring works that I painted over the years. She likes in particular the girl and the wine that I painted around mid 90s. She said that the work was so naive and all lines and forms just came so naturally. She likes the simplicity of the work and how the strokes of lines shaped the details of the work. To some extent, I agree with Hong. However, over the years, my skills improved and I think I can handle strokes better. Nevertheless, I have lost the touch of naivety. In life, we gain some and we lose some.
