“To travel and see and paint is for me a way of learning. It is a part of my life philosophy. Throughout the journey, the things you see, the people you meet, even the air you smell can give you so much enjoyment. I don’t count how many paintings I can do every trip – this way, the travel is full of potential and surprises.” – Chang Fee Ming
