​My favorite tool is pencil. This is because it can be easily controlled. If I did anything that I don't like, I can just earase it.  My favorite material is oil pastel . This is because I had a friend who inspired me to use oil pastel more. I like best on how I work through the product , developing different ideas.When I say that a piece has turned out really well, I mean that the skills and techniques applied to the piece is precise. My favorite color is orange. The qualities of it are social communicator, warmth and happiness.

 

I begin a piece by research. I know a piece is done when I have spent a sufficient amount of time on it. When my work is going well, I am filled with a sense of relief. When people see my work, I'd like them to understand the meaning of my piece.

 

My current work contains art pieces of social issues, photography, family perspective. By doing these works, I am exploring and attempting new types of media. The most challenging aspect of my works are determining the level of effort I should put in for every different task. This is because I always spend too much time on a certain task but spending too little time for some tasks. Most of my pieces are influenced by my previous life experiences. For example, my family perspective piece is based on my perspective on family based on my years with my family.
