Business and resistance...

Never in my dreams as a little child did I ever think I would come to live, work and play in Hong Kong. Born in Canada to Chinese parents, I moved here in 1994 and worked as an architect for 4 years before pursuing my greater interest in photography and art. Having published my second book themed and titled \'The Asian Male\', I\'m set to continue and explore all things that make this Universe as diverse and interesting as it is.

business world says i have to get my butt out there, do shameless promotion of my body of work, not matter how many times i have thrashed it out to newcomers or followers. i put a twist to an event, hire a publicist, a business development manager (BDM...ooooo, sounds so butch), an agent and perhaps even a part-time assistant to document my photography collection, which has grown to a scary volume of dvd's of over 500. i cringe at the thought of documenting and tagging. anyone want to come and take on the job? then....the struggle and guilt of not producing my own work after reading books like 'the war of art', whereby resistance seems to take over me. to the writer, it's writer's block. to me, it's getting down to the work of painting or drawing, or finding the next suitable models to grace me with their presence. oh, how i feel like the work is so waiting for me, sitting and teasing me with it's fiery flesh of blood and beauty. resistance is laughing at me. i have not found the right model for my next project and i'm peeved. why? maybe i'm not looking hard enough. i scour the internet and books seeking inspiration and i'm envious of what others have achieve, but not really. i think i'm gonna head to the gym and sweat it out, again...

*hugs* You need to relax, organize your life and all those loose ends that are clogging your mind, and then it'll come.

Do only the stuff you feel comfortable with...and stop searching too hard it only leads into a total blocking...usually I find sth when I gave up looking for it...

I am a photographer-artist living and working in Hong Kong. I vary between socially outgoing to hibernating at home with a book. I challenge myself in many areas of life, namely creatively, intellectually, physically and spiritually. I believe that I am ambitious in whatever I do and try to encourage others to do what they are passionate about. My three main areas of artistic interest are people photography, graphite drawing, and finally painting. All three areas weave in and of my life at different times. I self-published a photography book in 2005 called 'The Asian Male - 1.AM' and just released the follow-up volume 2.AM under the same title. Other than this, I dabble in Tarot readings and enjoy quiet nights with my fur-ball cat 'BB'. My weakness are anyone that is stunningly good looking, whether male, female or somewhere in between (these days, it can be hard to tell), bitter chocolate, gelato, and a nice pair of legs.... I like reading non-fiction books mostly, especially ones that really make me think and question myself and life. Although I am generally quite moody by appearance, it's usually because I'm thinking WAY too much for my own good.
