“Fading Flower portrays a woman contemplating a flower. The theme is the fading of youth, both in the flower and the figure of a lady. Her challenge and ours is to seek new inspirations from past dreams and experiences. This is an abstract painting done loosely, with the interplay of the reds as one element, the highlighted areas of the woman's body and flower counterbalancing each other, and the purple providing the backdrop. The painting is part of a series in which I combine realism with elements of abstract patterns.”
