It actually took 2 person to finish this painting. I had the priviledge to finished this painting along side with Charmmie Vu. Unthought she was not practicising art, but as the art enjoyer, she really put her effort and knowledge in this painting under my instruction and guidance.
The painting, titled "Epiphyllum (Hoa Quỳnh)," presents a striking and enigmatic composition dominated by a solitary. A vibrant explosion of color, this abstract painting pulsates with raw energy. Bold strokes and splatters of yellow, orange, pink, and white erupt from a deep blue and green background, creating a dynamic dance of light and shadow. The chaotic yet harmonious composition conveys a powerful sense of untamed natural force, perhaps reminiscent of a blossoming spring or a cosmic burst.
This piece, with its electrifying interplay of pigment and gesture, stands as a testament to the artist's unbridled creative force. Observe the masterful application of color: the luminous yellows and oranges that burst forth, juxtaposed against the deep, resonant blues and greens, all underscored by the vibrant, spontaneous splatters.
This is not merely paint on canvas; it is a meticulously orchestrated chaos, a visceral articulation of inner landscapes and universal rhythms.
The power of this work lies in its capacity to transcend the literal, to speak directly to the senses and the subconscious.
It evokes the dynamism of natural phenomena – the explosive renewal of spring, perhaps, or the intricate web of cosmic forces – yet it remains fiercely independent of direct representation. Here, the process of creation itself becomes the subject, allowing us an intimate glimpse into the artist's powerful dialogue with their medium.
