黏土．不再只是孩子的玩意，
它可以是你書桌上的名片座，
也可以是你牆上的一面鏡子；
它可以很實用地為你的家添上童真的快樂。
……還有那建造在玻璃瓶上的各式小店，
一定讓你愛不釋手喲！

cLoZeGaRdeN is a country, an unlimited imaginary existence, since cLoZeGaRdeN loves the colorful drawings, the black and white writings, and all the living creatures in the world. Always believe in the good of life, but, our eyes just can’t escape from the ugliness and hypocrisy happening around. Therefore, we finally close our eyes and feel the happiness, only with our hearts.
cLoZeGaRdeN代表著的是一個國度，一個無限想像的空間，因為cLoZeGaRdeN愛七色的圖畫。也愛黑白的文字，更愛世間一切的生命。相信人生是美好的，然而我們的眼晴能夠看到太多的醜惡，也看到太多的假象。於是。最後我們都努力閉上了眼晴，用心去感受最美好的。

Budden Miniature is taken from my honey doggie’s name, I hoped Budden will join my creation forever. I started to learn 1:12 miniature 3 years ago and started my free creation 2 years ago. The main subjects of my works are different kind of desserts, cakes and western sets with sweets feeling.
Budden Miniature是用了本人心愛的小狗的名字，希望以後做作品時都有小布甸相伴左右。3年前開始學習1:12迷你黏土學習，近2年開始自由創作，主題以食物為主。例如：各式甜品、蛋糕及西式套餐。以微小及精細為特色，帶有豐富及甜美的色彩。利用假日時開始自己的黏土教學，用簡單而有趣的方法將迷你黏土手作帶給不同的學生。
