  Dragon and Phoenix      

  An American sculptor of Chinese descent, I have been inspired mostly by Asian art. My work has always been figurative, focusing mainly on the elegant bearing and formal dress of Asian women and children from the royal courts of the past. In recent years, I have become even more fascinated with the art of ancient China and Japan.

-Scroll to the bottom of the page for the stories
about each of the "Children of the Good Fortune"-
  For this show, I have sculpted figures, mostly children, inspired by the imperial life of the Heian Period of Japan (794 - 1185) and the Song Dynasty of China (960 - 1279). These periods overlap by 225 years allowing a direct comparison of the style and color of ancient Chinese and Japanese dress during the same historical period.

The name of this show is "Children of Good Fortune".

Each child is either holding an auspicious object
or carrying a symbol of good fortune on their clothing.
