对於我自己的一切, 我巳没甚麽好说的!

再谈谈我对艺术的看法!
总觉得艺术并不是件容易的事。不容易是因为人人都有着自己的一套标准,不论你是谁,都大可成为艺术家。君不见人人老爱对着那一件又一件的艺术品发表意见,纵使咱们都没有任何的美术训练。君不见人人老爱对着那一件又一件的艺术品发表意见,所说的、犮表的都是潮流、道听的。故而艺术这东西是可爱的。一方面它激发人们的思维(如果有用脑去想的话),另一方面在众人面前它是平等的(不论你是总统还是乞丏)。是那一门子的专业有这么般的自由?是化学、生物、物理?抑或是文学、历史和音乐?这一切可都不叫人深思的吗?
看看周围专业的种种,有那门子没有其领域的框架呢?然而当其主导性己飞驰框架以外,这专业的领域还是否有其神呢?我是有所不解。在纷纷的疑惑当中,艺术本质的价值又是什么?
我以为艺术本身的重点,应着眼於创作者的心灵与艺术品之间交流,旁观者或许看得懂或完全不明白都没关系。明者自是可喜,不明者也无须心伤。只要大伙对艺术都有着一份对美祟敬的心,你我在观点上的差异,又何尝不是件好事。

Not long ago, I mentioned how my health has deteriorated over the years, not knowing that an elder friend had just admitted to a hospital for a week or two. Within seconds, he kept quiet and stress over the issue. I felt so bad about it! I wasn’t intentional to share my health conditions, just that I was amazed by my family doctor who discovered some of poor health symptoms well before they appeared.
I am sorry for putting such pressure on him; however, I do hope he can also learn to take this issue with a lighter heart. For the amount of stress taken by him over his health issue, I afraid it will not help to make his health better. I sincerely wish he could face the health problem with an open mind, take good care of himself and continue enjoying what he is doing. Treasure whatever he precious most, be happy and stay happy!

Achievements!
What we achieved in life, very often is not measurable!
However, as people like to compete with one another, measurement arises. Many
of these measurements were created for us to compare and compete with each
other. And often we focus so much on our figures; our achievements in the end
turn out to be meaningless.
Why should measure and compare? Can love be measured? Is
greatness been able to measure? Isn’t this funny that we keep looking at what
which is better, while the fact is a good deed no matter big or small is equal.
The same apply to art. Can classical painting been more soul touching as compare to abstract painting? I doubt so. Very often, it is the experiences from the audience that work for them. Many things we work for, like art, should be a happy experience. Nevertheless, the conditions we imposed make them less enjoyable. Should we all then realize the truth and be less competitive? Let do what we do wholeheartedly, and shall we not care about nos. 1?

Time is not enough!
I am always happy when people appreciate my effort. It can
be someone who likes my art, my blog or even the tiny little thought I share.
Recently, several friends asked why I didn’t update my blog regularly? I afraid I have
disappointed them because I simply do not have enough time!
The fact is I am not lazy! There are so many
things around me that required my attention. My artwork in particular needed
much of my time to create and that was one of the main reason I resigned from
my former job. My family and friends also need my care and concern. Most of the
time, you need just small fractions of an hour to touch a heart or, make someone
change to a better person, so I asked myself why not spend some time with them
then. The question is always that I have only twenty-four hour a day, and my passion
for art spread a wide range from drawing to painting, from Western art to
Eastern art, from understanding to creating ideas and thoughts. For me “Time is just not enough”, really! :-)onge from oil to arcylic ight touch life, or,
make someone change to a better person, so i

Not sure what happened to me for the past few days? I have switched from painting Chinese ink painting to Oil painting. Those cells within me have changed my mood I presume!
Brushes and oil paints have been running on my canvases. Thanks to my friends who asked me to share my Oil experiences, thanks to my supplier who gave me new canvases to try, thanks to Hong and my children for allowing me to spent time in exploring my art, thanks to those who supported me and my art. The galleries, my mentors, and many more whom give me hope, joy and the heart to appreciate the beauty around me.

When there is hope, life is always good! Hope always accompanied by laughters and happiness. When there are laughters and happiness, we are able to work things out correctly and even better, meaningfully.
Life is not about work and work and work! Very often, it is also who are you? What have you done? Do you own a meaningful life? Are the people around you also share the laughters and happiness you owned?

I was happily painting yesterday! not sure what is happening inside me! I painted paintings and more paintings the entire day! By the end of the day, I was exhausted. Completely lost of energy! Trying to rest, but I can't. My brain is still working so hard, and ideas and ideas just appeared in ME! I am so blessed with such a quiet Sunday in my studio to complete those work. I am happy, very happy!

Every little thing!
I am quite happy these few days. I managed to paint a few good paintings, or at least I feel these paintings are pretty good.
Many times, we can be happy if we know how to appreciate things around us. Even a very tiny little thing, the level of joy we derived from that is not measurable. So I tried to appreciate what I have, surely I don’t want to take the good things around me for granted, and I really don’t want to miss every good feeling that I could get from them.
Appreciate the good things around you! I hope everybody does.

It’s another new year!
It’s another new year!
It is so funny that as I am getting older, the more I feel that time is not enough for me. There are just so many things out there I want to achieve. How I wish there are 48 hours per day! No, no, maybe 48 hours is not good enough for me! I need more time to do my work.
Painting, drawing, engraving seals, printing, documenting my ideas, my thoughts are just some in my list. Perhaps just these few things are sufficient to take up all the time, but I am just too greedy to have more stuff to complete.
Things I want to do might not important to others, and at times I wonder why am I doing all these? Maybe is my ego? I just feel like doing them and I really hope to achieve more this year!
