Artwork

Scroll through my development over my years as a young artist, or pick one kind of work.

I painted my first acrylic canvas when I was six. Growing up in Hong Kong, my parents constantly took me to art exhibitions, from Monet's landscapes to Chinese paintings, and they inspired me to paint and draw my own.

Sketches

Cozy House in Tokyo

Ink and watercolour · 2024

I sketched this house on a trip to Tokyo. Tucked between modern buildings, its old tiled roof, little balcony and striped awning caught my eye, so I drew it in ink first and then added light watercolour washes, keeping the lines loose and quick.

Chinese painting

Ethereal Falls

Ink and wash · 2019 (Age 10)

You can see how much my technique has improved, from the brush strokes to the use of different colours to create gradients, shadows and water that seems to splash right in front of you, as if you were standing with the three spectators. When I first saw the reference photo, I could not believe that something so scenic existed in nature, so I named it the Ethereal Falls.

Acrylic

Azure Haven

Acrylic on canvas · May 2018 (Age 9)

I took inspiration for this piece from a trip to New Zealand, where I saw a lot of beautiful and breathtaking landscapes. I added my own flair to it, also taking inspiration from other places in the world.

Soaring High

Acrylic on canvas · 2018 (Age 9)

After a few years of experience my skills had improved vastly. I learned how to use gradients to add depth and realism. In the nose of the plane, for example, I added quick strokes and shadows to show the curving shape of the nose cone.
