Introduction

Wai Sam has a passion in observation to things surrounding him. He is sensitive to current issues and has a strong interest in visual arts since a young age. Stressing on expressing feelings through painting, he observes to the inner feeling and facial expression of the person in famous paintings. He is also fond of expressing his concerns to social development through ceramics, one of which was an artwork for his concerns about heritage conservation.

 

Wai Sam hopes to share his experience in art with people with different abilities and in the meantime spread the message of optimism and positiveness.
