Cheung received his art training in Hong Kong during the 1960s. He was the Vice-Chairman of Hong Kong Artists Society from 1995 to 1997. Cheung advocates selective borrowing of artistic idioms from other cultures without losing one's own national identity. He believes that there are certain similarities between Chinese ink painting and Western watercolour drawing. Naturally, one may find discernible watercolour brushwork in his ink paintings. Cheung's works have been exhibited in Hong Kong, Japan, Canada, and various regions in China. He has recently participated in the Chinese Poem-Calligraphy and Painting International Exhibition. | |||||||||||
