SUR-EPISODE II

Sur episode II : destiny
Thinking about uncertainty occurred when I got sick. The past and the future beyond deathreboot in my head. Is it the thing that happens to me when I become older? or just when illness comes to greet me ?? Some says this is the year of the tough pig.Everyone was born in one of the twelve animal years. Good and bad in each year,everybody knows no one can take anything to the next life.Finally, birth, old, illness and death come along my imagination through the paintings.I believe that just do my best and it will turns to be the meaning of past in the futr.
(Tiger and elephant mainly mean myself.)
