I paint picture books and murals. I make ceramic sculptures.
As my work requires a lot of solitude, I really enjoy meeting up with friends or cook together after a long day.
Sometimes I can't sleep because I feel full of inspiration when it's full moon.
I like to laugh. There were time I woke myself up by laughing in the dream. I guess that means I'm a pretty positive person?

I was mostly on the road for years, until settled down in the east coast of Taiwan, where there's ocean in front and mountains behind. I still love the unknown encounters and excitement of long traveling, but I also love the simplicity of life. Hopefully to have a sustainable lifestyle in a not long future.

I'm not always a talkative person. but when the vibe is right, I enjoy good conversations, sharing some fun, different thoughts and experience.

Live for drawing; draw for living.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm always fascinated by sharing and listening different cultures, histories, and experience.
I can make quick portrait that doesn't look like you but feel like you.
