Charming and elegant women have always been a favorite subject for artists. Since 2000, I have created over a hundred paintings on the theme of the “Golden Age (Mysteries Woven into Illusion),(” depicting a diverse range of female figures. To this day, I have also composed dozens of short poems to accompany these paintings. I hope you enjoy it.

Nocturnal E-117
If in the galaxy a single star shine,
His rays won’t attract many eyes.
To catch the world only is the whole galaxy’s light.
One day. When you look up at the sky,
You’ll find your own rays,
Shining the brightest.

Serenade E-113
In the stillness of night,
The nightingale lingers, reluctant to sing.
I sit on the edge of my bed,
opening the window of my heart,
Letting the gentle moonlight
caress my face.
The breeze drifts softly, sometimes quick, sometimes slow,
while I remain still,
eyes lowered, lost in thought.
I think of nothing,
Letting my spirit
soar freely across the sky.

*** Mysteries Woven into Illusion (Wanderer’s Song)
Beauty of Spiritual The true driving force of creation lies not in technique,
but in the awakening of sensation;
not in imitation,
but in an inner response to light and color.
Art thus becomes a continually renewing act of life —
to listen within light,
to see within color,
and within form,
to let the soul attain its freedom.
Poetry and painting by Chung Siu-Yau.

Beauty E-111
rises from the depths within,
reflecting upon the outer world.
It is not primitive chaos,
but the radiance of the soul,
An intuitive perception
beyond reason.

Mysteries Woven into Illusion*
There are mysteries that do not wish to be solved,
only felt—
like moonlight resting upon still water,
beautiful precisely because it cannot be held.
Somewhere between dream and waking,
where shadows dissolve into silver mist,
the unseen begins to whisper.
A fleeting image appears,
then disappears like a lover at dawn,
leaving behind only the warmth of a memory.
Perhaps illusion is not a deception,
but the language of mystery—
a veil woven from moonlight, longing,
and the secret dreams of the heart.
And perhaps, in the quietest moments,
when the world becomes soft and distant,
we may glimpse what lies beyond the veil:
not a truth that can be possessed,
but a truth that touches us gently,
like a forgotten love
returning to a dream.
Poetry and painting by Chung Siu-Yau. (鍾筱攸詩画藝術)
Mysterious Woven into Illusion* (E-184)
There are moments when the world seems to loosen its form,
when what we know begins to shimmer
and something unnamed stirs quietly beneath it.
Mystery does not always arrive as revelation.
Sometimes it comes as a dream,
a passing fragrance, a distant light,
or the brief touch of a presence
we cannot explain.
Illusion becomes the delicate thread
through which the unseen enters the visible.
It changes shape as we approach it—
now a shadow, now a memory,
now the face of a forgotten desire.
And somewhere within this shifting veil,
The soul begins with its own metamorphosis.
What was once uncertain became intuition;
what was once imagined becomes a glimpse;
what was hidden begins, ever so softly,
to reveal another form of truth.
Perhaps this is the secret beauty of illusion:
it does not merely conceal reality—
it transforms it.
Like a dream woven from moonlight,
mystery passes through the heart,
leaving no evidence behind
except the strange feeling
that we have touched something ancient,
something beautiful,
and almost impossible to name.

My definition of beauty is simplicity, elegance, and sensuality. I think that when a woman is in harmony with herself and remains true to her values, she will glow naturally.

Mysterious Woven into Illusion (Song of the Earth)
When artists face the canvas, painting sometimes is like when we glimpse into that mirror?
Every day I breathe deep, open the innermost world, unconsciously roaming on the canvas.
Suddenly, the door is open, the magic is working; a channel exists between the canvass and the brightly cave in the mind.

Mysteries Wovcen into Illusion (Impromptu)
When the nightingale would not sing, listless in the drowsy night, On my couch, my heart open,
I allow the gentle moonlight softly to stroke my face, while breeze sweeps by swift and slow,
Staying still, eyelids drooping in a daze,
Without a thought, over the horizon let my soul take flight。

Mystyeries Woven into Illusion Lyrical (E-183)
Feminine Beauty—
is the soul’s secret radiance,
a tenderness cast upon the world.
It is intuition,
yet not the raw pulse of instinct—
but a vision beyond reason,
a whisper of light that senses itself.
When spirit communes with form,
we wander freely within the living essence of things,
and joy—
a boundless, wordless joy—
unfolds like a silent blossom of the unseen.
From the source of grace
rises fullness—
the rounded lines, the living curves,
pliant, gentle,
flowing with harmony
and clothed in quiet brilliance.
She is clear,
unburdened by melancholy or shadow;
she turns away from suffocating sorrows,
offering instead
a calm that soothes,
a beauty that consoles,
like resting in a luminous room
where even silence breathes serenity.
Such a woman—
so rare, so inwardly radiant—
is already a work of art,
a sculpture of true feeling,
a gleam in the gallery of the soul.

Mysteries Woven into Illusion Cafe Series (1)
Coffee is my therapy.
I like things with flaws—
I don’t want to be the same as everyone else.
I want a simple life.
I don’t need a lot of things.
I love the small, old-fashioned joys:
a refreshing shower,
a good book,
dear friends,
and quiet moments.
