QUOTATIONS

"As an artist, I think my greatest desire is to leave behind traces of my works as personal remembrances and as a record of my life."

"In my experience, to become an artist, a person must first grasp the basics before trying to develop his creativity. He must carefully choose a subject, observe and analyse it thoroughly until he is in love with it. Only then can he use his skill to impart his emotion on the canvas. This is how I approach art."

"The materials used for murals are even greater variety, including colouring matters and colour paint for surface painting and clay, wood pottery, porcelain, metal and shapeable chemicals for relief scultpure. This makes for the increasing complexity of the task of muralists.

Nevertheless, there are reasons to believe that they are able to accomplish the mission of times provided they devote themselves totally to this art form and make it their life-long pursuit"
