VIEW IN MY ROOM
What I normally do now with many paintings is create several base layers of random, strong brushstrokes using a broad paint brush, but with a careful selection of colours that I hope will give the final painting it’s overall tone. For this initial piece, I chose a combination of green with yellow for the overall tone, a vintage look. I approach the painting with more certainty than others, borrowing from what I learned in doing automatic painting. My hand gestures and mark-makings becoming more attuned to the surface of the paint. I could sense a better understanding of paint consistency and moved into the canvas with greater confidence. I still am consciously creating the composition, and for that I will contend with in the land of Lemuria. I have resisted saying that my paintings are reminiscent of Hong Kong and the landscape of mountains and valleys, feeling that it is too easy and convenient, yet the similarity is certainly there.

Canada
Norm Yip (葉灃) was born in Canada in 1963 by Chinese parents. After studying fine art in Saskatchewan and architecture in Toronto, he moved to Hong Kong where began working as an architect. In 1999, he decided to transition into fine art and photography, following his deeper passion into his personal interests. He formed a collective called Melo-Melo Artist Alliance with several friends. It was then that his journey into art began. Oscillating between photography as a main source of income and painting as a hobby, he began to assert more attention and time to the latter. He has exhibited numerously in both solo and group exhibitions in Hong Kong, and most recently in Bangkok, Italy and New York. He currently resides in his birthplace province of Saskatchewan, Canada where he continues to paint and photograph.
