The artist primarily focuses on creation, supplemented by teaching. The studio offers products for sale and hands-on workshops. The main focus is on creating realistic sculptures using "red copper," drawing inspiration from nature's elements. Leveraging red copper's inherent strength and malleability, each vein and texture is meticulously hammered by hand. For retail products, natural cashew lacquer is used for coloring, resulting in a more delicate, refined, and lifelike finish. All works are purely handmade. Whether it's a custom order or a workshop experience, each piece possesses its own unique color and texture, distinctive, one-of-a-kind, and truly inimitable. The materials are easy to maintain and can be preserved for a long time, making them ideal gifts that convey deep sentiment.
