It just flows freeform\n<li>He paints while listening to various asian-themed soundtracks, or sometimes taiko drums\n<li>All his paintings are started upside-down, which also helps the freeform flow. Sometimes geishas become mountains, sometimes mountains become geishas\n<li>He can have between 8 and 10 paintings on the go at the same time, because of all the layers they need and the various drying times that are required\n<li>His wife is the one responsible for putting each individual Swarovski crystals\n<li>The little monk symbolizes self-mastery.
