Secret of the creation

When I paint, I follow the frequency of the inspiration that I got at first.

I feel the colors, shapes and textures with a total image of the piece.

Sometimes it also has sounds or smells.

And the each part has its own frequency, and the total image also has its own.

The frequency is a code. Therefore, to paint is to decode it, and to embody it.

As I continue further in the painting, I gradually get to know the meaning of the piece, and I finally know the whole picture when it’s done.

It’s actually a quite interesting process as if I am a hero fallen into a fantasy world to quest for the hidden treasure, or a scholar seeking the answer in a mystery novel.
