Sweet Khaos
My work is guided by a deep love of color and a desire to capture the fleeting beauty of everyday life. Growing up in Beijing with artist parents, I was immersed in art from an early age before continuing my formal education at the School of Visual Arts in New York. These experiences shaped my approach, allowing me to bridge the principles of classical Impressionism with a contemporary sensibility.
I perceive color in a distinctive way—often noticing hidden hues and bringing them forward through an expressive, broken-color technique. Working primarily in soft pastel and oil, I value the immediacy and richness of these mediums, which allow me to respond intuitively to atmosphere, light, and the subtle shifts of emotion that animate a moment.
My pastel painting Sweet Khaos captures a beautiful white horse whose personality is as gentle as it is strong. True to her name, Khaos is resilient and powerful, yet it is her sweetness and calm presence that truly captured my heart. I was drawn to expressing this balance between strength and gentleness through her pose and expression.
I especially enjoyed capturing the subtle sunlit hues across her fur. Using soft pastel allowed me to layer delicate warm tones into the white, revealing texture, light, and warmth without losing softness. Sweet Khaos is a portrait of quiet strength and tenderness, celebrating the gentle spirit within a powerful form.
