(08.09.25) Thank you for visiting my humble site. 🙇 Annual update will come soon. Too many things to choose from.
Work "History Lesson" is on display at "Mr Lim's Shop of Visual Treasures" for at least a month. It's hard to photograph it well, so hope more people will go see the actual work. I will post the other rough studies here on its own page by this week.
