Taking on oil paintings

This summer I painted about 30 canvases, the sizes of the paintings are on the small side.  I cannot believe that I actually enjoy painting in oil after many years of painting in watercolor.  It is rather refreshing to me to paint in oil.  I feel comfortable with the medium.  That said, I am not a master of oil painting; I am not a watercolor master either after so many years of  watercolor painting experience.  The more we learn, the less we know.  But I am not shamed of sharing my oil works with others.  I welcome all your comments.  Here is one of the oil paintings I did in this summer. Cheers!

Blog Beginnings



As you view this blog, my hope is that you might witness my progress and maturation as a fine artist; I desire to share my inspiration and struggles with like minded friends, fellow artists, and any other genuine and creative souls.
Two Waters is a poetic term I have chosen to name my blog.  Two Waters  symbolizes both my Eastern and Western backgrounds, two sources of artistic inspiration, and the two different worlds and cultures I have lived in.
Two Waters  live quietly side by side; yet, through one artist’s seemingly random and yet destined journey, they merge into a personal tale which will surely keep unfolding.
