  • house with wisteria in north sydney

    House with Wisteria in North Sydney

    I always love this beautiful terrace at the corner of a North Sydney street. Every spring the wisteria blossoms cover the brick wall and makes the house even more charming. Finally got the chance to paint it at its best. What beats painting outside in a sunny day with the fragrance of the wisteria. A grandpa walked by with a cute little girl and he later told me My granddaughter wanted to see β€œthat girl and her painting again!” Then the lovely owner of the house came out with her dog and invited me into the house. The fun of plein air painting 😊

  • hyacinth macaw

    Hyacinth Macaw

    $540.00

    Just back from a six-week trip to South America. I found it so funny when I woke up and saw the red light under the TV, my first thought was β€œoh, crocodile!” Then I realized I was not in Brazil any more and I was a bit disappointed. I never expect this Brazil trip would leave such a huge impact on me. It was like stepping into Zootopia and I’ve never been surrounded by so many wildlife in my life! Among all the beautiful birds, Hyacinth Macaw is probably my favourite. They are beautiful, they are cheeky, and when they fly, that blue in the sky! They were almost driven to extinction and only a thousand left in the wild once. Thanks to the dedication of many wildlife lovers, we are lucky to be able to see them in the wild again 😍

    Kirribilli-McDougall Street in Jacaranda season

    If you are a jacaranda fan, you most probably know McDougall Street. I finally got the chance to paint en plein air a few times when the jacaranda were in full blossom. One day I saw this young mother rode by on a bike with two little kids in the back seat. I thought she came especially to this street to show the kids the beautiful blossoms. Then the second day I saw her again and I realized she probably is a local and this is her usual route sending her kids to school. I was quick enough to snap a few photos of the young family and they become my most favourite subject of the year :)

    Little girl picking flowers at Clontarf beach

    $490.00

    I was painting en plein air at the beach. A little girl ran over to pick the flowers right beside me. Love her chubby pink cheek and the pretty pink dress in the light, picture perfect. I am so grateful that her father was happy for me to take some photos as my next painting inspiration. I even got time to add her in the plain air piece 😍

  • morning light on old temple in china

    Morning light on old temple in China

    $450.00

    I went for jogging one morning when I visited the old town of Suzhou, a scenic ancient city near Shanghai. It was too early that I didn’t get a chance to visit the old temple I found on a small street, but I love the morning light on the bright red wall of the old temple and the interesting shadows the red lantern casted on the wall. Inspiration everywhere 😊

    Morning Reading

    $490.00

    I was painting en plein air at lavender bay and spotted this girl reading on the bench nearby. Strangely, in today’s digital age, I am always attracted to people who are still reading books the old-fashioned way πŸ˜€

    Morning surf with best buddies

    I love the Shoalhaven area and I was lucky to stay at Gerringong for a while. I went jogging on the beach every morning and love to watch the locals braving the morning chill and surfing when the morning sun just rises. The the energy of the turquoise water is forever a magnet for me. Such beautiful memories 😍😍😍

    I went for bushwalk in the neighbourhood and noticed these two rainbow lorikeets checking out their home in a tree trunk. Maybe it’s their new home, maybe they already have babies in it. Sweet home 😍
