In the beginning, it started from something little by sharing some art-related content on my social media such as Facebook, Instagram, and WeChat, on the topic of the art exhibitions and art fairs that I went to and enjoyed. I posted a few brief introductions and comments on the artworks I like. I did it was purely for joy and I saw it as a journal of my art adventure. What I didn’t expect is how popular it has become among friends and new followers online. I’m so grateful when they tell me how much they like the posts and look forward to my new blog, even the newly met friends! I’m really happy when they say that through my blogs they have broadened the horizons of their ordinary lives, their knowledge of art has increased, and most importantly they have started to have more appreciate of more the beauty of art! Not until then did I realise that there are so many friends around me who, with children, are eager to enjoy the beauty of art and refine their appreciation.

I feel blessed that I was born into a family of artists and spent some of my childhood in the courtyard of the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing. After graduating from high school, I got an opportunity to go to Japan to study Visual Communication Design and Fine Art. In addition, I met many art connoisseurs, collectors, critics, art historians, and other scholars in what is seen as the heart of traditional Japanese culture, Kyoto. Immersing myself in their influence and nurtured by them, with tireless study and research, I have gradually acquired my own understanding and feelings about art. And with all of the art activities that I engaged in later, from antique appraisal, art collection consulting to contemporary art criticism and curation, all of this made me feel empowered.
