Bold and beautiful is what comes to mind at the sight of this breathtaking artwork. The strong strokes of blue hues are eye-catching and inviting to anyone who views this brilliant piece. Again and again, the artist never fails to create an illusion, depicting a fragment of his imagination which makes one wonder of the narrative behind the painting. Of course, his signature moon sits on the top centre elegantly as the swirls of blue and black tints create a strong striking motion-like visual. He has set a significant benchmark on marking his own identity through his prominence use of colour combination, art style and technique.
