Elysium, No. 5, 2025 Acrylic on canvas 127 x 92 cm Departing from the deep blue hues of its predecessors, Elysium, No. 5 embraces a warm backdrop, where floating orange-red and purple flowers ascend effortlessly across the landscape, with exception to one white flower. #art #contemporaryart

Lemuria, No. 9, 2018 Acrylic on canvas 140H x 140W cm This painting was displayed in my studio in Hong Kong, utilizing vertical brushstrokes to convey waterfalls and circular motions to represent forests -- all the while remaining abstract. This artwork has since been sold. #art #contemporaryart

Cornucopia in Victoria Park, 2017 Acrylic on canvas 96 x 157 cm This particular painting is a favourite, taking inspiration from Cubism. It balanced itself between figurative and abstraction. As one would have it, it was sold to an unknown buyer through Saatchiart. #art #contemporaryart #abstractart

The Pleasure Factory, 2017 Acrylic on canvas 96 x 152 cm Another painting using male nude figures to create a rather dark arena of sexual desire and wantonness. I cannot recall what I was going through in my mind, but there it is. #art #contemporaryart #contemporaryart #desire

Garden of Earthly Delights, 2017 Acrylic on canvas 96 x 152 cm For a brief period, I explored incorporating nude figures into my work. This piece combines gestural brushstrokes and light colour washes, interwoven with flowering plants for added depth and interest. #art #contemporaryart

Lemuria, No. 5, 2018 Acrylic on canvas 100H x 100W cm Another painting from the Lemuria series. Quite chaotic I must say, especially when compared to Lemuria, No. 6, which I posted earlier and succeeded this one. #art #abstractart #contemporaryart

Lemuria, No. 8, 2018 Acrylic on canvas 100H x 100W cm There were many stages where I felt it could have been a complete painting. I even took photos. They were accomplished on its own, but I decided to let it go and continue. #art #contemporaryart #abstractart

Elysium, No. 2, 2024 Acrylic on canvas 122 x 122 cm Floating, cloud-like apparitions—ethereal forms that also resemble blooming balloons. Mysterious and ominous, this piece introduces the newly discovered electrical phenomena known as sprites... #contemporaryart #artist #postimpressionism #sprites

Lemuria, No, 3, 2018 Acrylic on canvas 122H x 122W cm "I am experiencing both darkness and light in my life right now, with perhaps more fear of the unknown. There is both chaos and structure in my works, never wanting to appear contrived." #art #contemporaryart #chaos

Lemuria, No. 2, 2018 Acrylic and pastel on canvas 152H x 96W cm I struggled with this painting, taking nearly 2 months to complete. It is really strange how some paintings just won't come together, and when you least expect it, something just clicks. #art #contemporaryart #abstractart

Lemuria, 2018 Acrylic and pastel on canvas 152H x 96W cm The Lemuria series was my acceptance of the landscape, following the Visitation series. Bold and wild brushstroke dominate the canvas in virgorous colours. #art #contemporaryart #abstractlandscape

Rapture, No. 4, 2015 Acrylic on canvas 200 x 125 cm After completing Rapture, I decided to scale up the painting to 2 meters in height. It's really different to work at a larger size that is taller than the normal human body, painted almost 10 years ago. #art #contemporaryart #abstractart

Rapture, 2015 Acrylic on canvas 125 x 125 cm Having just completed 'The Meadow', I just allowed the paint to form and morph into what it was to become, akin to automatic drawing. Thus, 'Rapture' was born. #art #contemporaryart #abstractart

The Meadow, 2015 Acrylic on canvas 125 x 125 cm This painting entitled The Meadow was one of liberation, freedom on constaints, and to simply "let go" in front of the canvas. It was kind, sincere suggestion from a curious art salesman type character that I was unsure about. #art #contemporaryart

Visitation, No. 8, 2018 Acrylic on canvas 100 x 100cm "Having discovered a new-found direction in my paintings, I began to release the energy into several canvases with more fervour than previously, integrating foreground bursts of swirls against a backdrop of deep forest-green hues." #abstractart

Visitation, No. 3, 2018 Acrylic on canvas 120 x 180cm I really struggled with this one--trying to capture an inkling of Cy Twombly spirit into the canvas with the downward drips. I admit I was very impatient with myself; I really should have slowed down. #art #contemporaryart #abstractart

Visitation, No. 2, 2018 Acrylic on canvas 180 x 120cm One of my larger works I have painted, and indeed, one of my favourites. It captures the spirit and essence of an enchanted landscape. It was sold by Saatchiart after their displaying at The Other Art Fair. #art #contemporaryart #abstractart

Le tourbillon de la vie, No. 1 2017 Mixed-media on canvas 140 x 140cm After an unsettling dog bite that rendered me bitter and resentful, I returned to the canvas with intense vigour. Using large brushworks, this was the first painting I created. #art #contemporaryart #abstractart

Visitation, No. 1, 2017 Acrylic on canvas 153 x 96cm Also known as Le tourbillon de la vie, No. 4, is a transitional painting. Previously, I was interested in the flat 2D abstraction. By introducing foreground and background, I was merging landscape elements. #art #contemporaryart
