About the Brush-Paintings on My Site
The Chinese brush-paintings and calligraphy on this website are all my own work.
My teachers were Professor Lusheng Chong for calligraphy and Yuming Zhu for brush-painting. Studying these art forms I realized, what essential benefit they offered for developing the skill of sensitive acupuncture needling. Therefore, as director and professor at Wu Hsing Tao School for 20 years, I required this practice for all our acupuncture students as part of their curriculum.
“In Chinese brush-painting I experience the brush and ink letting the energy of my heart and my hand to become visible on paper, a perfect biofeedback for developing the way in which to handle an acupuncture needle: with intent, precision and determination, while remaining soft, gentle and caring”
