《 The Setting  Sun 》 Painted by   dawnxisoul393   When we painted this picture on the beach, one moment the sun was shining, the next it was fine rain and mist, accompanied by a wind that often changed direction and drifted across the sky from time to time. We would not have been able to believe or imagine these changes if we had not experienced all this firsthand on the beach. This is the charm of the sea. We faced the sea, basking in the warm sunshine with the seagulls and listening to the sound of the waves lapping against the rocks. We stood on the beach, closed our eyes, opened our hands to touch the sea breeze, and quietly felt the gentleness of the sea. We played with the waves, kissed the sea breeze, and communicated with the cries of seagulls. All our worries disappeared and we felt relaxed and happy. The boundless sea is full of surging power.  Illustrated by dawnxisoul393 The waves splashed to the shore, and the sound of the waves, like a thrilling ocean s...

《Dancing Koi - Vitality of Life》 Painted by dawnxisoul393 Dancing Koi - vitality of Life, the thoughts behind our painting《Dancing Koi - Vitality of Life》 Imagine that we are standing at the edge of the koi fish lake, enjoying the glorious scenery of the setting sun. Look at a burning fireball, how to land quietly from the sky. Our eyes couldn't help but look at the koi in the lake as each wave of water passed under our eyes. Beautiful lakes and koi are something we see every day. Yet we often lament that we are just inconsequential visitors in this beautiful world of landscapes. Suddenly, we see a dancing koi fish with amazing red, black, and gold scales swimming toward us. It is full of the vitality of life, it reflects the infinite power of nature. Listen carefully, the leaves are rustling, the water waves aroused by the koi fish are playing the most beautiful melody in life, the charming sounds of nature. We follow it, moving our bodies, dancing the way we want. There is a bird...

《 A beautiful, peaceful, and auspicious combination - Lotus and Koi 》 Painted by Dawnxisoul393 The lotus flower and koi paintings are one of our favorite paintings. Our painting of "Koi and Lotus" has its poetic flavor. In this painting, red lotus flowers are in full bloom and the wind carries the fragrance of lotus flowers. A beautiful koi fish swims toward us in the sunlight on the crystal water. The water is like an elegant silk scarf. The lotus leaves are stretched and the dew rolls on them. The lotus flowers are graceful and beautiful, quiet and moving. Koi fish weave in and out of the lotus leaves and flowers, a fascination with nature and life. With the sound of water, the koi fish jump out of the water. It was as if the miracle of the world appeared at this moment. Koi fish is quite representative of the tradition and has many symbolic meanings. People in many Asian countries use koi fish to represent their family's tradition of good luck in the coming year. Lotus...

Before our daughter was born, we went to the "Bride Pond" and "Mirror Pool" in the new territories many times. Today, the weather was fine. We went to "Bride Pool" and "Mirror Pool" with our little daughter for sketching and painting. Bride Pond and Mirror Pond were very dreamy and romantic places. It was located in the northwest of CW Freshwater Lake. It was one of the most famous scenic spots in Hong Kong Country Park, among which Bride Pond and Mirror Pond waterfalls were the most famous. There was a Bridal Pool Nature Education Road in the scenic spot. We could not only enjoy the Bride Pond and Mirror Pond waterfalls, but also know all kinds of animals and plants. There are beautiful waterfalls, dense shrubs and gurgling streams. The waterfall in Bride Pond was 15 meters high. The pool was big and deep. The pool water was clear to the bottom, showing a magnificent beauty. The valley downstream of Bride Pond was very wide and could accommodate...

  《Happy  Meditation 》,  painted by dawnxisoul393 Our Meditation Practice under the Ravage of covid-19 Epidemic It has been more than a year and a half since we have been living this life of staying at home regularly under the preventive and control measures of covid-19. Faced with an increasingly critical situation, doctors, patients, and those of us who live a day-to-day life in our homes are constantly going to the news these days to see how many more patients have been added in which city today? Which country has started to implement some severe protection measures? Which friend has been cured and discharged from the hospital? Where will humanity go if the virus is finally out of control? Those fears, anxieties, and insecurities in our hearts are constantly being pulled out, and the psychological pressure from all sides is increasing. The world seems to have hit the pause button, and humanity is caught in an endless fear. In the face of the virus, we are ignorant, our...

《The symbolism of two koi - The romantic love》, painted by Dawnxisoul393 The symbolism of two koi: The stories and thoughts behind our painting《 The romantic love 》  (One of our spiritual self-healing thoughts)  Koi in the water are not only beautiful, but they are also treasures of feng shui. They blend the aura of heaven and earth and carry the pride of water. The ancients believed that good Feng Shui can store wind, store "Qi"(氣), and get water. "Qi" is circulating all the time. It is easy to be blown away by the wind and break the balance of the cycle. But it stops when it meets water. Therefore, water can make the circulation of "Qi" smooth, that is, it can keep people's luck. The koi mascot in the water can regulate the flow of "Qi" and maintain the aura between heaven and earth.  Illustrated by dawnxisoul393 The two Koi in our painting have high backs and wide bodies. They are valiant, firm and soft, and calm. Among many Koi species, r...
