Starving for Art
I felt a sudden urge to do art recently. I think it all started on the Sunday morning when I arrived early at JCCAC before the craft fair. I arrived there after Sunday service, with a couple of idle hours before the start of fair, I slowly strolled around the quiet building. Passed by many […]

Claude Monet Exhibition
Finally decided to see the Claude Monet exhibition this afternoon. It’s my first time seeing an exhibition of an impressionist artist, not to mention one of the pioneers of the field. I didn’t seem to be too impressed with the impressionist paintings, but I was really captivated by the life of the artist. According to […]

Website Revamp
Finally took the time to revamp this dusty old website. The previous version had quite a few glitches that I’ve grown to ignore and find my ways around, I’ve managed to kill some of the bugs in this update. Over the past couple of years, I seemed to have grown more “social” and relied on […]

Iron Ring
Recently made a cable-stayed bridge model in the studio, just for fun really, and I figured there’s probably no better place to put my iron ring than inside a bridge (model) I’ve designed and built! It feels a little strange not having the ring on my pinkie after all these years, feels like leaving behind […]

6 Years Ago…
On this day 6 years ago I boarded a plane, left Canada and came back to HK. For the sake of family reunion and unknown career opportunities, I stepped out of my comfort zone and into an unfamiliar land. 6 years has quickly flown by, what have I accomplished? I’ve finished a MSc. degree studying […]

Goodbye 2015 x 1/2
Feeling low lately. Reviewing the first half of 2015, time seems to have just flown by silently, what have I done in exchange of the precious time I’ll never claim back? After recovering from major illness in the beginning of the year, I promised myself and God that I’ll better manage my time and live […]

36th Birthday
Gave myself a day-off today. Watched a movie that was recommended by my sister. The movie was about the true story of a world famous Korean tenor who lost his singing ability due to sickness, a precious God-given gift vanished all of a sudden. It was an inspiring movie, I kept asking myself what my […]

“LIFE IS ONLY ONE”
Been thinking a lot about the concept of time lately. I was woken up suddenly early this morning trying to calculate the age of my father, was he born on 1945? Or was that my mother? I just remember that my mom is 5 years younger than my dad. My parents are still healthy and […]

Valentine’s Day
Spent the Valentine’s Day in the studio listening to TED Talks while cutting cardboards. Cutting cardboards because I’m in the process of designing and fabricating my first piece of furniture. There was solitude in the simple and repetitive work, I imagined that Jesus might had this similar feeling when he was serving as a carpenter. […]

Creative Monday
Before engaging full-time work after my recovery, I gave myself one last day-off to do some spontaneous creative works. I upcycled all the medical pill bottles from my illness and turned them into incubators for new life (baby succulents). I codenamed this quick spontaneous project “REBIRTH”. As the saying goes – “What doesn’t kill you […]
