Love is for the soul. Shun-An has collected the word "Love" from many different people's languages. After first talking to them and getting to know their culture, she then integrates the word into her painting. Language is so tiny in describing Love. In her works then she often distorts the word and makes it more-or-less a symbol unto itself. She purposely uses warm colors, in a balance of straight and curve lines to harmonize yin and yang. Before painting she often fills herself with a spirit of love awakened from her own subconscious. Her wish is that the flow of meaning in her paintings, derived from the word "love" from many cultures and enhanced by her own spirit, can touch the human heart and renew the inner beauty in each person. |

Energy is for the body. Shun-An encounters a blank canvas with no preconceived plan; no route to touch the silence within her. "Painting energy is itself like a stage of meditation" with the paint flowing and altering the space according to its own being. She emphasizes diagonal movement, power, and passion through free flowing lines muted against loud colors, fast against slow lines, and thick texture against thin. She wants to create a space for the viewer to feel the power of cosmos. |
