Website Review "Chiristian Riese Lassen"

I found a good website "Lassen International". This website is Christian Riese Lassen's website. He is a artist. He is particularly famous as the premier marine artist.
★His Introduction★
He was born in State of California Mendocino county. He emigrated to State of Hawaii Maui Island with a family at the age of 10 years old. He was interested to draw a picture after childhood and studied by self-education. He majored in a subject of the art system in the days of a senior high school. And I developed the original style and law of painting. From 1976, he has begun to announce the work as a painter. Furthermore, he plays an active part as a professional surfer, a professional windsurfer. In 1980, he attracts attention by the picture which he drew Hawaiian nature scenery (a dolphin / an evening landscape / the shore) on. In 1990, he establishes the sea vision foundation of the environmentalist group. He held an exhibition in Japan, too.

The day I first saw his artworks, I was a high school student. I hadn't known him until then. When I went to a hotel to have dinner with my family, a exhibition was held. Few artist's artworks are hung there and I saw his artworks at that time. I was greatly moved. I thought how beautiful they are. They were the most beautiful works I have ever seen. The pictures shows a dolphin swimming. I saw the dolphin was like living, and I felt I could hear the sound of wave and wind. I remembered his name at once, but I didn't know himself yet at that time.
And then, I have come to hear his name and see his artworks from then on. I often saw him through TV program. The TV program is "London Hearts". It was the first time I saw his face. I think that people in the world are worth watching his picture. Thoroughly please enjoy his world by all means. He drew many pictures. You can see all from this website. http://www.lassenart.com/
For example, we can see pictures of whales, dolphins, turtles, two worlds"above and below the sea", seascapes, panoramics, figuratives, exotic cars and bikes, abstracts, impressionism, sketches and watercolors, sea life, horses, south western, wildlife and so on.
