Artist Statement
Oil on canvas
I knew the water town from the book, in middle school. It was described as a beautiful and quite place, full of life. So I had a dream, that some day I would come to see. While two years ago, the first time I came to her, there was nothing I could see except thousands of visitors and shops, and the wonderful impression gone.
This painting use knife carving on wet oil material.
