About the oil painting titled “Cracked”
This video presents the launch of a new oil painting subject, “TeaCUPS”. Here’s a little on my inspiration for the subject…
The custom of “having tea” is ubiquitous around the world. It’s a ritual of preparing, serving and savouring tea, sharing one experience often as a prelude to another. Among the other objects and underlying ideas, my collection of teacup paintings represents personal experiences and discussions that occurred over tea. I recently traveled to Great Britain and Ireland to connect with my roots and ponder treasured memories sharing tea and conversation, especially with my mother. In conclusion, I painted this series of “TeaCUP” paintings most of all to celebrate these experiences and reminisce the wonderful relationships in my life.

With a focus on representational artwork: paintings of figures, florals, objects etc. our goal in the “Feminine Insight” Exhibition was to create elegant & sensitive paintings through which the viewer can connect with their deepest emotions. Painting is visual story telling, when inspired we believe it can become a catalyst for creativity in others in all areas of their lives. We hope that through sharing our feminine insight, the viewers will recognize that in many ways it is also theirs; as such our paintings become a charge to connect with each other as human beings.
