to the traditional approach of
chinese ink painting.
My intense studying oc colour,

wealth of most different
colours - earth colours and
mineral colours, hundreds of
pigments of natural earths
colours, ground minerals as
well as plant, animal and
modern organic and anorganic
colours. In my experience
natural colours are more vivid
and have a much larger
spectrum than artifical
colours.
As the centre of my aesthetics
is harmonization - a
harmonization which relies on
the Chinese concept of Yin and

well as complementing elements
are taken to be a natural
whole.
It is perhaps the specific
