About the artwork
The lotus blossoms, rendered in delicate strokes of pink and white, emerge from a sea of textured crimson leaves. The painting hums with a quiet energy, a symphony of pinks and reds that pulsates with life. A solitary dragonfly adds a fleeting moment of magic to this ethereal scene. Yu Nancheng's signature impasto technique transforms the canvas into a tactile experience, where the very paint seems to bloom alongside the flowers, inviting the viewer to step into a world where color and form merge into a moment of pure, vibrant beauty.
