Off Hours Activity

• I love Chinese Calligraphy and have kept learning it since nine years old. After practicing the masterpiece of Yan Zhenqin (颜真卿) and Liu Gongquan (柳公权) in the childhood, grasping the essence of Shu Su Tie (蜀素帖) from the Song-dynasty Calligrapher Mi Fu (米芾) turns to be my pursuit. Recent practice photos:

 

• Street photography. Some of the photo collections are presented in my portfolio on the right.
