Hello, my name is erik cheung,
and I'm a doodle addict. Edmonton canada

I have spent 30 odd years trying to develop my art following an instinct, subconscious drive I tend to believe. That is why my work varies from sculpture to drawing, painting, representational to expressive and abstraction. I taught my students doodling years back, knowing I need to surpass in skills, I pushed my approach further and landed on a new style of true subconscious. I was fortunate to have studied under Pat Martin Bates at the University. Her subconscious abstract works somehow led me into the same realm of stories from another world.

I specialize in acrylic, drawing, gold leaf, marker, mixed media, oils, painting, pencil drawing, sculpture.

This turned out to be a finished painting. It started with a full canvas of doodle lines (check my patreon log if you are interested in the raw file) This was executed just this March. Still, no lines were altered except the face area. Impossible you say?

Done on 24 in x 48 in gallery wrapped canvas! Wanna hear me explain? Watch 'The Canvas' entries on www.patreon.com/erikcheung

This is an image found without alterations hidden within a page of crazy lines. It must be a nightmare in my subconscious. www.patreon.com/erikcheung

From gibberish to treasure. Spontaneity is all over!

Things just happen? Or is there a hidden subconscious initiative that I have to finish one for my cellist friend ....a year previous to meeting her again at the art walk? Has this ever happen to any artist here?

from a meeting

What is it otherwise?

Find the heart!...and follow it......:) Yes, it is red, the last time I checked.

Drone is such a common thing now and this work comes with the remote as well!!

It is one continuous line. The name of a historic figure. I started to name my doodle with names at one point.

transferred to glass!

The red shape on the top right is the projected area.

A very simple one that gives a 'chime' sound! You hear anything?

Laughing out loud with drool flying all over. It must have been a great day! comments?

Watching too many Greek warrior movies back then? The images were embedded in my subconscious all along !

What a mess! I am never good at flower arrangement!

How many people see this as a whale, I wonder!

Like smoke, the line finishes as soon as it began. There is no room for any colour shapes, or anything else to be done to it; any additions would disturb the coherent of the flow. Contrast, balance and flow all met there. Art simply surfaced at that very moment and left a trace. This very line represents 3 decades of work!

Always that game of catching and evading. I added hands on this one to hint the figures.

Mr. Death and his shackle.

Face to face, eye to eye, this pair of lovers is sharing their moment, despite any other figures which comes and goes. Now, all rests in the back of the mind, buried.
