About the painting:

This painting was inspired by the view of the fall landscape in Minnesota. I saw the scene at the rifle club shooting range, and instead of just taking a picture and trying to work from the photograph at my studio, I stayed and painted there all day. It has allowed this Plein air oil painting to be full of energy, and connection with the moment. Hope you will enjoy it!

About me and my art experience:

As a young child my parents enrolled me in art classes in my hometown, it was there where I discovered my love of art. In college, I studied photography and design before moving to Dalian, China to study Chinese. After coming to China, I received an oil painting kit as a Christmas gift from my husband which is when I rediscovered my love for painting. Turned out that oil painting was something that I can't even imagine living without. Before I knew I had put together quite a collection of works, some of which were exhibited at the Art Creation exhibition (Dalian, China) in 2015 and Foreign Artists Living in Dalian in Xi Cang Art Space in 2016. My works range from photo-realistic portraits to impressionist street scenes and landscapes. Currently, I am living in the United States of America, working on a Ph.D. in Chinese literature, but my passion and favorite pastime is painting.
