Anxiety ceased as my solo exhibition has started, finally! I'm showing 43 pieces/series of art altogether. It will run for 7 weeks. Sep 3 - Oct 20. Please visit and view my work, write to me too. It was great to meet some lovely friends there yesterday, and I made a new friend who is very resourceful :) Simply makes me smile all the more!

Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Buffalo New York
Really worth driving a few hours up to visit Albright-Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo New York to view some beautiful original works of master painters and contemporary artists.
Now that I have seen with my very eyes Clyfford Still's huge body of works (his pieces of art have to be viewed as a collection I was informed), and Frank Stella's real paints, am I content with the facts about abstracts - its presence, worth and influence, and continue to passionately develop my own abstract art? #noturningback

Community Project - mural paintings
It's a lapse of few months from January this year that our community project at Duchess of Kent Children's Hospital was finally completed. It ended in a high note with a meaningful opening ceremony of the Radiology Center in which the Hospital has revamped the facilities to offer advanced services to the public. We artists at Artists Abroad were greatly honored.
A few of our designs were chosen; a small party to meet up with the Hospital people behind this project.
A quick start on the mural painting in the first X-ray room. I just loved the free painting and art jamming! It only took us a few days to complete.
Second X-ray room, with a totally different painting style - masking and sponging, then drawings of birds and bugs. Also a quick work, but the finishing was not as easy as expected.
After almost two months, the renovation of this reception area was finally ready for painting. It was precision wall painting, which wasn't quite my thing, plus I had an accident of having a nail go right into my foot through my flip-flop ... bleeding ... bleeding ... but our other artists efficiently brought the work to completion also within a few days.
Big day of celebration, great opening ceremony in which various speeches informed me how much the public, the very needy children, would benefit from these new facilities. Even our mural paintings are a source of comfort and motivation to them. We all felt very honored to be able to be a part of their project and mission.

Small blocks filled with textured bubbles
Schedule for second half of 2012 is packed; I can't afford to hesitate. Now that the exhibition was over, travel was done (oh how lovely holiday with so beautiful people!) I'd better hurry before the long trip, and another exhibition, and now may be one more, take place.
Travel ... the Shunde trip made me want to paint something Chinese, but, one thing at a time!

Art Exhibition
I thought I would be very relaxed, settling in my new home, making a new studio in my roof garden (still no plant yet but plenty of lovely fresh air and greens at the surrounding mountains) ... suddenly time flies, and I have to rush again.
Discipline! Discipline! I have to put my new experiments on abstracts aside and concentrate on ... tomorrow! Exhibition with my dear artist friends tomorrow May 11 Friday at Yacht Club.
My contemporary realism series which always sings to me! I finally get things ready and I look forward to a fun day coming up.
