Sea water inspires me.
Its transparency under the bright sun allows me to see different depths within it. Its predictable rhythm and sudden changing moods remind me of the ups and downs of life. I have crossed the Pacific Ocean from one end to the other with many other Vietnamese refugees. That journey has left a heavy imprint in my life.
Sitting in front of my canvas, I challenge myself as if I were fighting for survival. I pour my paint, push my strokes, swing my arm, stretch forward, drip, wipe, stack more, dig out, move around, struggle, contemplate, and continue repeating these actions. During the process of creating art, the images from my memory come and go. Lines, shapes, shades, colors and textures are tools for me to communicate within. When the visual part integrates with my feelings, it's time for the actions stop.
