    -Flowers and girls’ series- by HSIN LIN
    In this series, I first started painting most of myself or my cousins, basically the people around me.
    Same as my "Bloom like flowers" series, flowers are the object representing life itself. In this series, I paint flowers in full bloom, an interpretation of the vitality, and also a salute to the golden age.

    The goal of my art journey has always been true to myself and be true to the present moments.

    To experience the changing of the seasons, it has become a routine of mine to paint the first bloom in my surrounding during its flowering season. I decided to add in the flowers from my front yard - peony stands for honour, and bush lily stands for great luck. In order to capture the details in this artwork, it actually took me several months to re-reconnect to myself mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.

    I absolutely enjoy painting those photo-real flowers, sometimes I even have dreams full of beautiful, delicate flower petals after a long day in the studio, which is totally worth it.

    I always want to deliver an important message in my floral series - Now is the very best time to be alive.
    Be at the moment, be yourself. Whenever you are experiencing difficulty, life itself can be bloomed like flowers with no fear

    Concept

    HSIN LIN, Award-winning Artist based in Melbourne, Australia.
    In Hsin Lin’s ongoing, signature contemporary floral series that feature native and common flowers we know, flowers represent life and each different type of flower has a unique symbolic meaning.
    Lin is inspired by her close observation of the natural world. Through a process of careful looking Lin is able to capture an incredible amount of intricate detail. To create the larger-scale work, Lin normally spends 6-12 months developing the intricate composition. The fine details such as the tiny petals have been developed through ten or more layers of paint. Lin describes that ‘although still-life is considered a traditional genre, each object in the paintings stands for a different meaning and has its own story. Flowers represent us as humans, vases represent the body carrying our soul, protecting us like a shield. The weaving basket stands for connections—the bonds between families, friends and all the people around us. Even if you are apart, everyone is still being linked together as a whole and we are stronger together.’ Lin’s paintings, a series of flowers in full bloom, remind us that we are alive and that life is vibrant, blossoming and full of potential.
