A name alone does not define one's ethnicity or culture. As open-minded people, we should appreciate an artist for their creative works and unique perspectives, without making superficial judgement. Cultural exchange is best advanced through mutual understanding and respect between all people. Thanks Karen who is trying hard to preserve dying culture!
Ya, why distorting d content of an art to gambling? So wld u also question CNA condoning pollution created by V12 ICE if CNA runs a series on luxury cars?
Karen’s Chinese name is Cheung, as it's her father's last name. ‘Karen Aruba' is just her illustrator name, a common choice among artists to represent their artwork as this holds her precious memory with grandma in the small island named ‘Aruba’. I truly appreciate her passion for promoting the art of mahjong with her father talents and educating the public that mahjong is also an intangible cultural heritage; it even holds deeper, meaningful value beyond our expectations.
It was wonderful being able to take part in Karen's workshop in NYC. Beautiful!
Really? When was the workshop and when was it held in NYC?

Great article Karen, wish you and your family more success on this path
Next time I’m in HK again I’m going to visit this shop
This doc was good and very interesting but you should have at least given a link to the artists.
Bravo 🤩
As a sign artist
I feel that tile carving is also a lost art nowadays.😢

CNA is promoting or adveristing gambling?
it is more about the art of making mahjong tiles, no mentioning of gambling
Mahjong is not necessarily a gambling game, no more than Canasta or Bridge.

She hasn't even got a Chinese name. Fake
