Oriental Brushstrokes by Ceasar Cheng

This style of brushstroke is elegant and dynamic and makes the painting lively because it looks two-dimensional compared with the Traditional Brushstroke painting method.

He learned from the best Traditional Painting masters who came from Taiwan- Liang Chung Ming, Liang Siu Chung and Wen Bi Ing.

He enjoyed painting so much that soon it became a hobby. In the 1070's, he studied Lingnan Tradition of Painting under the tutelage of Master Hau Chiok.
