TRADITIONAL Pencil? Charcoal? Colour Water? They are my friend before I know how to draw with my Wacom tablet. Working with them is the great experiences that I never have with a computer - the feeling I have when touch to canvas or surface and enjoy the unpredictable result of art. So, beside the digital life, I have them the traditional ones along with my artworks and both of them support me by their particularly way to make my art - somehow - better...
TYPOGRAPHY How to apply a very principle thing like types to the very naturally like a nature shape (human/a pear/a milk bottle)? I try to answer that question with brush, ink and colour water on paper.

CONCEPT ART "To be successful, the first thing to do is fall in love with your work�. In my definition of work, there is no boundary but just challenge and passion. More challenges just make me more passionate, hungrier for knowledge and better.
DIGITAL ART Computer is the second thing I have approached after studying fineart, and It’s very soon become my passion, and open the knowledge gate in front of me. Digital image, Illustration, Animation and Film were created with the contribution of what I leant with digital life.
THE DANCER “Winning“ is the spirit of this manipulation. The symbol of a dancer who is widing his arms like the wings expressed the freedom - in art, and in life, too.
