Today’s Asian character is Michael Lam from Postman Sam!

He is Chinese-British.

A Seawall Image and thoughts about art and its creation.

I’ve often heard, and used, the phrase “Art is not created in a vacuum” – its true, it isn’t. I was curious recently as to the origin of the phrase, so I went looking.

Outside of the King’s Castle - Michael Lam

“Ah, sweet blanket of silence, gentle kiss of shaded fog

I’ll rest here a long while, ‘til I’m as one with the ruin.”

“My future has come

With the dawning sun

I leave behind death

Though not like the rest.”

Still Alive
