On empty mountains just after the rain
In the evening autumn begins to reign
Brilliant moon the pine forest shines over
On the pebbles rushes clear spring water
Bamboo trees stir when washing girls go home
Lotus leaves flutter as fishing boats come
Spring flowers for the moment please take rest
To stay with autumn here for me it’s best
Everyone says the South is beautiful,
The choice haven to settle forever.
Springtime water is as blue as the sky;
Sleep on a boat as you listen to rain.
At the tavern the girl is like the moon;
Her white, smooth hands resemble sparkling snow.
Stay away from the North while you are young,
Going home will only bring you sorrow.

"Lee’s figure paintings and scenes from life can be altogether darker, bold experiments using areas of flat colour that are ‘naïve’ or even surreal in style and composition.” – UMAG

Wong Shou Ching loves outdoor drawing. These few years, he has become obsessed with the scenery of Western China, and, although he does suffer somewhat from altitude sickness, he has visited several times the mountainous regions of Tibet, Qinghai, and Xinjiang. He finds there simply an exposition of mountains and valleys, unveiling the immensity of Nature – the most powerful message from God. The people there are unpolluted and straightforward, in essence becoming one with Nature. This must be Shangri-la in Shou Ching’s heart. Returning from Tibet, he has continually poured out what he saw and felt on paper and silk. The seven “Tibetan scenes” exhibited here are the latest of these works. The objects depicted are at the same time like, and yet unlike, the real world. A painting is finished, yet ideas are far-reaching. The paintings have lively uncovered the simplicity, mysteriousness and rhythm of Tibet. They are at once Chinese and western, modern and classical.

Clouds move swiftly, in a moment rain pours down. Farmers can then cultivate their land, which brings harvest. Rain is a gift from Heaven, a blessing bestowed by Nature. If we truly respect Nature, become simple and modest in our way of living, we can lead a peaceful and happy life, and our future generations can also heartily enjoy the resources of our earth.
Most contestants understand and are able to bring out the theme. They paint the ideal world in their imagination, at one with nature, with simple but rich conceptions.

Drawn Thread Embroidery from Europe was brought to China by Christian missionaries at the end of the 19th century. The art then fused together with the native embroidery in China, resulting in a rebirth of the craft, with new designs created and techniques developed. Embroidery from China is now in great demand in different parts of the world. Its products, be they embroidered handkerchiefs, table cloths or bed sheets, can be very elegant and refined.
Mr. Micheal Sze, who has over 30 years of experience in the embroidery industry exhibits his collection, and explains the history and handwork process behind pieces and pieces of beautiful yet mysterious embroidery.
