Artist Statement
In the past few years, I have always held the desire
for writing, depicting somebody or something, which at the
same time could be a souvenir for my journey. I hope that
in this certain book, the poems can cast off the restrictions
of merely the nature’s loveliness and perfection, and the
proses can go beyond the soulful romance; despite the
arrogance of exploring the world with a single perspective,it should be a satisfactory starting point.The talent for literature is rare, however every soul can be inspired. It is hard to believe that I have been through the childhood with an unstoppable yearning for inserting my imagination into stories, which now matures into publishable words. Finally, I would like to express my gratitude to my parents, and also to the opportunities that await me. May our future be victorious and glorious.Author
