This album is a collection of more than eighty (80) pieces of fine art works. Each piece of art work is accompanied by a poem, making this album unique, beautifully poetic and romantic.The art works are multi-facets and diversified in nature. They encompass abstract, heavy-color, landscape, still life, and so on. Themes include 'Mother Love', 'Music', 'Mulan', and twelve (12) Birth Stone Series', and others are the artist’s meticulous creations.PrefaceI remember in the 70s when I started formal study of fine arts, I was very fortunate to have met a teacher, a woodblock engraving senior master Mr. Zheng Tong Xiao. He led me venture into the big gate of art work creativity. Under his guidance, I often participate in the Shanghai Art Museum exhibition. At that time, very few female art students engage in creative art works. Then, my other teachers Chen Jia Ling and Zheng Bo, in their comic strip classes, the essence of art work creativity were stressed. Not until China was opened up by Premier Deng Xiao Ping, I squeezed in the last train by passing an entrance examination and admitted to the Fine Arts College of Shanghai University to study art design. Master Jin G.Kam was my class teacher-in-charge, who taught us color sketching. As the saying goes 'Master leads the way, each is accorded personal enlightenment.' I am keenly aware the meaning of perseverance; no matter what, just stick to it and one can and will succeed. More the ten years of efforts, when my physical condition was at its prime bursting with energy, were devoted to creation of art works. The publication of my art works is to share and to leave a footprint. In my formative years, the learning from woodblock engraving and comic strips drawing, I became particularly sensitive to the application and manipulation Chinese art fine lines. Fusion of lot of Chinese art fine lines and color are prominently displayed in my art works. Because I love music since the time of tender age, many of my art work themes depict music and mother love. Sleeping Stone and I became acquainted in our maiden times. She used to play piano and I sing; our deep friendship blossomed. Later she went to Canada for higher study and I came to the United States to continue pursuit the dream of fine arts. After more than a decade of separation, we find each other and link up again. As a little girl, she is fond of ancient Chinese poetry, Chinese literature and also likes to write poetry in English. She is very interested in my art work artistic conception and the ways of expression, particularly in the bright and brilliant chromatic color presentation. The paintings give her limitless imagination allowing her to enter another realm. As a poet, she is inspired by my paintings to write, and her poems blend beautifully into my art works making my album romantically poetic. Thank to all her hard works. Art is like a big garden, 'when all flowers are in bloom, all schools of thoughts contend for attention.' But art cannot cater to everyone’s aesthetic; an artist must maintain a clear thought. The pursuit of fine art is endless, it must be continued to explore and innovate in order to achieve desired deal, and this is my own demands and expectations. In this, also like to thank my husband Henry Yee, for support of my artistic career. Liang Peifeng
