Born in China, raised in Taiwan, and having lived and worked in the U.S. for over three decades, my goal in my art and my photography has been to bring my experiences there to my world here. I have sought to capture the beauty of this land – in both its bold and sublime colors and always glorious vistas – grand and small.

Seeing the Western world with an Eastern eye, managing the DOW with Tao, eating tortellini with chopsticks, every day I wonder what my past has made me. Find out, I have used lenses that combine Asian and American sensibilities and glimpse beauty in all shapes and forms.

To the extent that I can recall and understand how my past has continued to shape me, I am convinced that two things in life have intrigued me profoundly: "words" and "pictures." I read and write "words." I draw and take "pictures."
While my published stories and books are in Chinese, my photographs are beyond boundary – they are presented here for you. I hope that they will help to enrich your own present by embracing the past as I have tried to do.

When you have a moment, browse through my photo gallery. If any of the images appeal to you, please feel free to make your selection and click the “order” button. This will bring up a screen that you can fill out to let me know how I can get in touch with you. As you can see, this is not yet a direct online ordering system. So please forgive this extra step. Hope it will allow a bit of personal touch, even to this experience.

In addition to creating photo prints in various sizes, I also custom design photographs in a variety of formats –greeting cards, note cards, and posters. To give you some ideas of how they look, visit my web site, click “Sample & Price” and it will bring you to an area where you can do additional browsing.

Many thanks for taking the time to view my collection and for your interest in selecting your favorites!
