• Artist Statement

  When thinking of a concept that I would like to do, I was reminded of early chinese art, and thinking of paintings about it, I was reminded of 2 things, Chinese Yo-Kai (Yaoguai: a term for monsters or strange creatures.), and the paintings that are cities amongst the mountain side, so I took inspiration from the likes of Ai Wei-Wei, and other artists that shown the Yaoguai, and I chose this artist and movement with the cherry blossoms because china is known for its art and nature, Ai Wei-Wei was the earliest chinese painter in chinese history, and the cherry blossoms normally bloom by late winter/early spring, so this painting is taking place during a night on either mid-february or early march.
