Travel Art investors:
“The portrait makes me feel warm. The figures are lively with their smiles. I can see the happiness, innocence, wisdom and kindness on their faces.”
“These paintings can keep you open-minded and uplift your frequency. They contain the painter’s perception of life, which are always showing you an opportunity to see it’s possible to express who you are and be your own style. What’s the value of the works of paintings being able to encourage and inspire you to open your own unique adventure of life.”
“You would be surprised how a raised-and-born American thoroughly understands Oriental culture and arts. Dave, the painter, has grasped the essence of Chinese ink painting and well practiced it into these paintings. This combination of Western background and Eastern arts is quite profound and fantastic.”
