Sunflower bloom in Autumn



After almost three months, the sunflower bloom in my garden.


Sunflowers always turn to the sun and their open faces symbolize the sun itself, conveying warmth and happiness, adoration and longevity.

When Watercolor meets Chinese Ink on Japanese paper

There are some fast demonstration by my teacher in class, i think he probably spent around 5-10 minutes for each piece.



I got this piece from the teacher. Without any extra, leaving only the simple color, outline and background. It's really nice and I like it so much.



Different vivid color was used in this picture, showing the high contrast effect.



Distant objects usually look blur, no matter in this picture or in reality.



The purple corn makes something different.



Green is not commonly used as a background color as the teacher told us, but he showed us how it would be. I think it's really not bad and quite fresh indeed.



Mickey Never Grows Old


Mickey is surely older than me and most of you, but the truth is......



How many images can Mickey have?......unlimited



Mickey is everywhere and may appears in any unexpected form. Yet to activate your imagination.

He never grows old.

Coffee Lover #1

I enjoy having coffee time during the weekend. Crema, located in an inconspicuous back street, is one of my favourite cafe in Hong Kong.


With the latte art, intense aroma and smooth foam, I probably can't say no.
