Law chosen half innocent, half erotic manga or comic's young female figures interacted with famous cities and landmarks which symbolizes the color and the materials heavy of contemporary Christmas holidays . Pale hair girls are the most ambitious project to date by michael Andrew law, which begins with 60 oil paintings for the acclaimed iegoism one man show, which later spawned into a 900 plus more digital-classical crossover paintings, most of the earliest in this series are done solely in oil and sometimes with acrylic based underpainting, while later works uses more variety of materials such as glitter, gold leafs, die cuts, sometimes museum quality achieve prints to interact with the oil and acrylic paint. At the time when Law started working on these paintings, he was just fresh out of his art school practice of classical oil painting in the mid 2000s in Hong Kong that's when he still using some of the academic classical painting method which he extensively trained during his art school years.that explains why These earliest work in the pale hair girls series were and mostly uses live model sitters in studio, which later on as the series expands, the later works are mostly painted based on photographs. In the series, Law also took some of the portraits painted works from his school years, and turned them into the same visual interpretation and style with the series, a gestures, in his words, to erases the identities of the portraits, and in attempt to creating a timelessness vibe which cooperate with the pale hair girl's identitylessness of this series.

About the Author: Michael Andrew Law fusing digital and classical painting with west and East creative philosophy, to produce an extremely original artistic language and content that bridged west and east, classical and modern medium, at the same time clearly tells the stories of his own generation. Combining digital creative materials and classical painting techniques with effusive yet knowing and precise focused, his paintings maintain a powerful tension between opposing aesthetic forces-expression and knowledge, control and spontaneity, savagery and wit, urbanity and primitivism-while providing satiric commentary on the oppressive realities of the predicament of Generation Internet, homegrown hongkonger's local-culture vesus Traditional Chinese culture, and The Hong Kong's post-handover history. In his dynamically designed compositions, gracefully detailed figures and innocent faces are incise against fields that juxtaposed with portraits, chinese calligraphy, and sometimes cgi. The Pale Hair Girls Series (2006 - 2013) depicts realistic cold, icy-like young female figures surrounded by abstract and expressively painted forms and shapes revealing images of Pop culture, Historial figures, and Hong Kong landmarks. Michael Andrew Law draws inspiration from Old Master's works such as Caravaggio, Ruben, Rembrandt, all the way to the Modern Art Superstars such as Warhol, Lichtenstein, Richter, De Kooning, Bacon, Wool and Prince .
