Mixed Media
Experimenting with the connotations of the world “cloud” I thought of the words pure, flow and freedom. I expressed these words in this art work by using technique like marbling to create the phoenix in the background. The clouds and green lotus was done by lino-print and the coloured lotus done with oil pastel. The number of panels, three in chinese culture represents “birth” which is also symbolised in the background as rebirth of the phoenix bird ties in closely with my Chinese heritage. The Lotus is the symbol of peace and serenity while it contrast with the fierce fury of the Phoenix.

Wood Work
This is the finished wooden sculpture an word illusion art HATE/ LOVE. From the front it spells out the word HATE but as the viewer turn 90o to the right the word morph into the word LOVE. It represents the silver lining to all situations which may be considered bad. There is a delicate balance between the negative and positive sides of a situations.

Advertising
This is a banner and postcard invitation I made for the senior art exhibition. I took photographs of all their works and selected a blue theme to make the design flow. The watermark over each image is also the artist’s name.
