Yihong HSU

“Nature Series- Elements of nature are my main characters. I use them to depict my stories in each painting. Everything that happens in our (human) life also happens in nature. Competition, struggles, sustainability, reproduction, co-existence, etc. I paint every day human life, my own experiences, feelings, and encounters using the nature’s elements. I feel that they express it better and also teaches valuable lessons. Although nature has its own struggles, ups and downs, they do it more gracefully and visually more pleasingly. They are fragile yet strong.”
