Xiaoming Tang - WET ART

Xiaoming Tang has said:

“Reality is not perfect, but truth is self-evident. The world on canvas can approach perfection. I strive to achieve a harmonious balance between tone, design, color, and atmosphere in order to evoke emotional resonance between the viewer and the work.”
