4. Because every piece is handpainted with heart.
5. Because staring at beautiful art beats staring at your Wi-Fi router. 🤣
6. Because sometimes, a puffin or a lakeview on the wall is cheaper than therapy.
7. Because a piece of art is like good tea — it changes the mood of the whole day. (2)

Few reasons you should buy wall art prints from me:

1. Because every wall deserves a little soul.
2. Because that one empty wall has been silently judging you for months. 🤣
3. Because your plants need a new friend who doesn’t need watering. (1)

Here are two of my bird watercolour paintings: Gentoo Penguin with Chick and Middle Spotted Woodpecker.

I’m also in the midst of finding new lodging and perhaps a part-time job, since my shop hasn’t had any sales for a few months. But that doesn’t mean there won’t be any tomorrow — and with Christmas coming soon, one never knows! (2)

I’ll try my best to study ornithology on my own. My interests are quite broad — otherwise, how would I survive the boredom of living in such an uninteresting society and neighborhood? That’s what keeps me going, along with my dreams. (1)

I currently live in a very uninteresting country where wildlife conservation is not so important and loving nature and animals is not part of the educational system. Children are not brought up to love the animals, especially the Chinese only taught about doing business or become lawyers or doctors.

Yes, I want to work in the squirrel world. So far I've managed my dog (and few other dogs and cats that have already gone to heaven), and squirrel yes (feeding squirrel and squirrel-watching). But I live very far away, not in UK. But hello to the beautiful red squirrels.

The beautiful Lake Como has inspired me to paint in both rain and sunshine. My thoughts are with the people in the Province of Como, Italy where thousands of homes have suffered serious damage due to the recent flood and landslides.

I’ll need to move to a new and safe place soon to continue my art journey. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever. Psalm 23
