Internationally reputed for his totemic energy oil painting, Professor Lee Sun-Don is invited to exhibit his latest oil painting series "Muse" and series of photography "My Inspiration RNA", "Deva Angel", "Art's Art", and "This is Love".

Professor Lee extended his art creation into photography this year and "This is Love" is his latest works of photography. In this series, the nail represents the male, and the rose represents the female, and the stone represents obstacles. Different compositions of the same elements laid out various romantic mood of the artist. "Art's Art" series combines the totemic energy oil painting with photography. In this series, a finished work (such as The Sands of the Ganges River/Purity Vase) is transformed into a photograph through camera, not only to present the beauty of light and shade of the image, but also to display the beauty of the artwork itself. What "Art's Art" demonstrates is an innovative concept – "Dual Creation of Art". "Deva Angel" series is inspired by the Deva murals in the Cave of Dun Huang. Winning high acclaim globally, this series has been selected for exhibition by many major international photography competitions, including "38th PSNY International Salon of Color Photography 2010"in New York, and "Golden Spurs 2010" in Belgium.

"Muse" series is Professor Lee's latest works of totemic energy oil painting after his devoting to photography for half a year. In Professor Lee's own words, while putting aside his brushes to hold a camera in his hand, he learns to grasp the light and shade from monochrome photography and to seize the moment from color photography. As a reflection of all these experiences, piece after piece of works of subtle shade and vivid dimensions were created on canvas to make the "Muse" series.
