What was a dull, drab place has been transformed into a vibrant piece of art by 86 year old veteran Huang Yung-fu who first picked up a paintbrush only a couple of years ago.

Wow that is something else...a color explosion!! I love the folk art technique...I will bet this lifts his spirits if he is a Veteran....It is most likely very therapeutic..
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting this...:)
Good on him! I can think of a few more places around here that could do with this treatment! The authorities would have a hissy fit though, and probably a heart attack too! Then the painter would be sued!!!
ReplyDeleteWonderful art & at age 86. What's hidden in each of us that we haven't discovered yet.
