About Clement Tsang
Hong Kong-born artist, age 75, Clement Tsang has been interested and involved in the arts and photography ever since he can remember. In the early 60’s he studied Painting and Photography in Rome. However, after two years of training his desire to paint seriously was not aroused until the time when he lived and worked in England for several years in order to learn western painting and photography. After that, he made four profoundly inspiring trips to Europe.
After he returned to Hong Kong and where he studied and taught traditional Painting and photography for over 20 years. In 1990 he immigrated to Canada and set up Clement & Elsie Art Gallery. As well he set up Royal Canadian Art & Music Institute in BC, Canada. Clement is a member of the Federation of Canadian Artist (AFCA), and many of his works were chosen to be displayed and awarded. Recently Clement retired and returned to Hong Kong, and continue his teaching and painting and taking photos for leisure.About the Product
Time to Say Good-Bye – A story of a mine digger.
Received a photo from my friend and requested me to paint this photo and share it out to others. Husband aged 55 but looks like 70, and wife aged 45 but looks like 55. From his white and pale face, we know that he is a mine digger. For the past 30 years, every year he has to stay underground for 9 months non-stop digging and digging. But what he gets is US$150 per month. Wife is looking forward to his return after 9 months’ hard working and hoping that he can share the last 3 months with the family. For every year, thousand and thousand of mine diggers die in China’s minefields. He is one of the lucky one who can survive that long.
