According to Cheung, his artwork focuses the energy towards diverse emotions from the inner states of mind.

Cheung Tsz Hin's instinctive and sensory-driven approach to colour captures floating light and plundering shadows. He adeptly captures the evanescent beauty of everyday moments that often arise and vanish quickly. The interplay of colours and lines is iconic in Cheung's style, and the portrayal of light and shadow reflects his personal touch. These elements display his unique perceptions and experiences. Cheung's use of colors and his skillful capture of sunlight demonstrates his sensitivity to the ephemeral beauty of nature. Guided by nimble strokes, these elements flow with fluidity, appearing as spirited lines and mellowing colours—like fleeting snapshots of moments from the artist's life.
The concept of memories goes beyond the traditional understanding, and the depth of it depends on the freshness of each recollection. As seen in Cheung's paintings, the underlying colours somtimes showthrough from the overlapping strokes, expresses how he notices certain memories can linger in different level of our consciousness over time. The canvases through Cheung's depiction intertwine memories and perceptions, creating a lasting testament to life experiences. These accumulative layers profoundly capture the essence of the artist, attesting to the richness of his enthusiasm.
