Dog has been all along with Lin Huang Yan's growing-up, especially in those depressed moments, dogs played a important rome to him as a confident, a great soother, and also a listening. Through those dogs with quite and slight melancholy in Lin's paintings, we could see that an artist's painting his own voice of inner talks, instincts, and all expression is always in tone of simpleness and purity.
Dog for me is a symbol of loneliness, it's a reflection of individual, it's like everyone's heart, fragile and delicate…-Lin Hung Yan
