Season’s greeting to everyone! A early Merry Christmas to all my new friends & old friends. Welcome back to my 2nd blog post of December 2021! ❤️ (And the last one of 2021? Maybe? 😊)
A Lovely surprised in my mail box this morning! Much appreciated VAS for featuring my story on Victorian Artists Society Members' Magazine for December 2021- our second magazine of 2021. I am happy and beyond humbled to be a part of our amazing community. Featured Artwork in the Magazine: A Life Time Story - Orchids and Roses on Wood Tray With A Weaving Basket (2021) Acrylic on Canvas, Ready to hang. 76.2cm (W) x 122cm (H) Quote from original article – Hsin Lin As an artist who is obsessed with the beauty and the form of flowers, I paint every object as a self-projection. During the new Era, time slows down for every individual to focus further on the connection to mother nature and the surrounding around us. I started a special series called ‘The Lockdown Diary’ since the pandemic- a special isolation diary that I wrote with my paintbrushes. It is an extension of my ongoing Contemporary floral series, featuring native flowers we love and common flowers we know. To experience the changing of the seasons and to present moments in the new normal, it has become a routine of mine to paint the first bloom in my surrounding during its flowering season. Most of my inspiration comes from my observation of the natural world. I use close observation to try to capture as much detail as possible. Through my paintings I see flowers as representing life, each different flower and object have their significant meaning and symbolism. Flowers represent us as humans, Vases as the body carrying our soul and physical body, protecting us as a shield in a natural order. In one of my large-scale pieces, which was completed during the lockdown, the weaving basket stands for connections- the bounding between families, friends, all the people around us. Even if we are apart, everyone is still being linked together as a whole, stronger together. Every passenger in our life, every stranger who is meant to cross our path for a reason, plays an irreplaceable role in this life-time story. You may see the work as a documentary of the special time that we came through. Our body kept us strong, alive, and healed, the heroes who keep the world moving. It is also a reminder that as the flowers are in full bloom, this is our time to be alive. Flowers always bloom in their own time without competing with other flowers. May we all bloom in our best season. Welcome to contact the gallery if you are interested in this particular artwork, or simply visit the link here for direct purchase. I truly hope you enjoy this artwork as I do. Warm Regards, Artist, HSIN LIN / H.Lin @helloinnerpeace #hsinlinart Comments are closed.
