![]() "Green Mood" Acrylic on paper Set of 4 (can be sold seperately) 45cm x 40cm |
| In her paintings Ann is focusing on various existential forms, attempting to capture the spirits with the merging of colourful bodies, whose truth is deeply rooted in the complexity of the modern metropolitan lifestyle. As her brushstrokes are sensitive and provocative, the characters in her paintings exist unrestrained and free, "I learned Chinese calligraphy and I can't help having the desire to "write a picture". But the characters turn into a lot of lines and without strokes characters become lines, connected lines become circles, very short lines become points. I want to let these lines run and show their own individuality". | |
