Through My Eyes: The Incomprehensible Bird 7

780 $

This painting was created in 2023. This year I was looking for a balance between life and desire while going out, and the work turned into lively small-size paper creations.

 

"Through My Eyes: The Incomprehensible Bird", there are 9 paintings in the series with this title. They are my small exploration attempts at portrait painting, so the techniques used in each painting are different, and the final picture effects are also different. It can provide ideas for future creations.
There were originally more small paintings like this, but in the end it was these few that were confirmed through my eyes over and over again. Each of them maintains its own unique beauty.

Creative themes and style |   My works revolve around the creative concept of  "The land of humanity, People on the land". The people in the painting are people in nature, and the lines, shapes, and colors are close to nature. The nature in the painting is nature in the eyes of humans, existing in interaction with humans.I don’t pursue a series of works with a fixed and continuous style. I hope that the style of the pictures will synchronize with the changes in my life and always remain oscillating. The performance of the work must be in sync with the development of one's own life in order to be Sincere and powerful. Ideas are later.

Artwork Interpretation

 

This watercolor portrait showcases unique artistic charm through color interweaving. In the painting, the bold yet harmonious color collisions of the figure’s bun and clothing, along with the overlapping of different hues, make the image break away from conventional realism and present a hazy yet vivid visual effect.

 

The creator skillfully utilizes the characteristics of watercolor. By means of the bleeding and permeation of pigments, it endows the figure’s skin and clothing with rich layers. The dark background blocks contrast with the bright colors of the main subject, not only highlighting the figure but also creating a tense atmosphere. The seemingly spontaneous brushstrokes actually accurately capture the figure’s demeanor. The drooping eyebrows and eyes convey introverted emotions, as if silently telling a story. The details of the net - like decoration in the painting add a touch of delicacy and exquisiteness to the whole, making the work not lack a sense of refinement in free expression.

 

With its unique color language and vivid image - building, this painting demonstrates the agility and inclusiveness of watercolor art. It is an effective exploration by the creator of the figure’s emotions and spiritual world. It also allows viewers to feel the wonderful power of art in conveying emotions within the flow of colors, bringing new aesthetic inspiration to portrait creation.

How does the emotional tone differ from earlier works?

Compared to the expressive and theatrical quality of the sixth piece, this painting shifts noticeably toward quietude and introspection. The lowered gaze and bowed head create an aura of contemplation, as if the figure is listening to the inner voice rather than projecting outward.

 

Why does the composition evoke a “watery sense of flow”?

The sleeves, collar, and background are painted with fluid textures, where greens blend seamlessly into blues, resembling the gentle ripples of water. This subtle movement suggests that the figure’s inner state is not entirely still but marked by delicate emotional undulations.

 

What is distinctive about the color treatment?

  • Face: A nuanced fusion of yellow, orange, and violet softens the expression while maintaining depth.

  • Garment: Interwoven greens and whites symbolize clarity and purity.

  • Background: Contrasting deep gray and pale blue pushes the figure forward, as though illuminated from shadow.

 

How is the theme of “The Bird in the Eye, Unaccountable” expressed here?

Although the figure appears serene, the unfocused gaze and the faint tension at the lips prevent the viewer from fully grasping her thoughts. This creates the impression of apparent transparency veiled by mist, sustaining the series’ hallmark sense of enigmatic psychological distance.

 

What is unique about this work within the series, and what is its collecting value?

Uniqueness: This is the most quiet and inward-looking painting of the series. Its narrative tension is built not through dramatic gestures but through silence and subdued presence.

Collecting value: It balances the series by offering an introspective counterpoint to the more outwardly expressive works. For collectors, it enriches the emotional spectrum of “The Bird in the Eye, Incomprehensible”, making it essential for both scholarly analysis and curated exhibitions of contemporary figurative portraiture.
