Yi Qing (Enhancing Clarity)
subject: LibArt 2025
description: This painting depicts a lotus blossom in a pool. The title of this work originates from a famous Chinese prose sentence: "香远益清，亭亭净植" ("Fragrant from afar, increasingly pure; upright and untainted"), which poetically conveys the lotus's elegance and purity. The subject of a lotus flower typically conveys a classical image of summertime leisure and beauty in Chinese painting.

Broken Robot
subject: LibArt 2025
description: I was inspired by the prompt, "meeting the oracle." To me, an oracle is someone who has special knowledge or experience. In this piece, the oracle is a spaceship mechanic who is interrupted from her work by a small child with a broken robot. I wanted to channel the feeling of an exasperated parent who loves her child but just can't understand why or how he keeps breaking things.

Lola
subject: LibArt 2025
description: With this painting my goal was to experiment with the oil medium, capturing reflecting light and the texture of my cat's fur. I also wanted to incorporate my own personal longing for a rural lifestyle, and how an animal may yearn to be free as well.

Burger House
subject: LibArt 2025
description: This painting is a self-portrait and a tribute to one of my favorite restaurants. I wanted to exaggerate orange and other hues to give a bit of a greasy feeling, since this piece was for my AP Drawing portfolio exploring the effects of fast food on our health and on society.
