His images catch the moment where the people are working hard in the farms, yet also enjoying life during festivaties. He is a true master of many different techniques, he prefers to paint cubism and asbtract. You will see that Hong Son is clearly expressing his true feelings and emotions in his work.
He was once quoted, "I will continue to paint until I can no longer hold a brush."
