     Art, in its many forms, is a powerful force. From childhood, my father, Grand Master Chi-Jen Liu, has had a special gift in art.

I have never forgotten how hard life can be.

My family moved to North Vietnam when I was seven. I can still recall playing with bottle caps with some of my friends in our elementary school playground. At one point the sky was darkened by what we assumed was a cloud covering the sun. Later, I realized I had had my first paranormal experience of seeing a UFO in the sky. It came as fast as it went, disappearing in a white glow. Today, I believe that extraterrestrial beings are part of human ancestry. They guide us with their intelligence. From that day, my friends and I became
