Artist Statement

I am a Taiwanese portrait painter and art teacher in London, driven by the intricate nuances of the human experience. Through color and texture, I strive to capture the essence of captivating individuals and characters. Each stroke, carefully infused with vibrant tones and nuanced textures, constructs visual narratives that deeply resonate.
My creative process is rooted in empathy and respect for the stories of my subjects. I seek to authentically portray their presence, honoring their unique essence and capturing the vitality of the moment.

Teaching at the London Fine Art Studios is a source of personal growth and fulfillment. Guiding aspiring artists on their journeys nurtures my passion, fostering an exchange of ideas and exploration of techniques.

Collaborating as a commission artist is a privilege that allows me to translate visions into tangible artworks. Engaging with diverse narratives, I bring them to life through my artistic interpretation. I attempt transcends the physical with my work, inviting viewers into an imaginative realm of emotion. Each portrait offers a glimpse into the shared human experience, blurring boundaries and inspiring reflection on our intricate beauty. In summary, my artistic journey humbly seeks to capture the complexity of humanity through color and texture. Portraying subjects with authenticity and reverence, I celebrate the inherent beauty and depth within each individual.
