The 2nd Place Award -Nature & Fibers Art Show, Frisco, Texas, 2022
PHILOSOPHY
Fashion illustration art work is my language; it provides a vision for a written word, gives a style to innovative fashion and connects visually our shared experience of art. My art work is expressed by the combination of fashion and fine art. Since I went to the art high school and had the great deal of opportunities to study fine art, the attraction of the fine art has drawn my attention. Then I have majored in fashion design at college and graduate school, which helped to feed my creative cravings towards the combination of fashion and fine art. This became a very unique expression of the fine art. With the convergence of fine art and fashion illustration comes the creative conversation of a personal vision and an observer's spirit.
'Black & Gold' is my color story written by the language, fashion illustration art; the color story conjures up certain images and feelings for people. The combination can remind people of vintage and antiques. It’s quite exciting how the story of Black and Gold can go from antique to modern. Black and Gold isn’t for everyone, but there’s no doubt that it will get your attention and make a bold statement. The story is not complex. It should be very simple. However, the story written with only two colors, Black and Gold, can deliver intense and passionate messages. With the meticulously controlled colors, I want to express the variety of experiences and emotion.
