Flowers, Oil Painting

2022

About the Item

Artist Comments
Artist Shuxing Fan paints alluring florals in shades of lilac, blue, yellow, and white. He fixes them on a contrasting chic gray ceramic pot. "I started the piece at the time the Russian-Ukrainian war began," explains Shuxing. The yellow and blue flowers represent his solidarity with the people of Ukraine.


About the Artist
Artist Shuxing Fan paints radiant classical scenes influenced by his formal college art training in the early 1970s. "My college study in theatrical set design was rigorously fine art oriented and heavily influenced by European and Russian educated mentors," says Shuxing. After finishing a BFA in Scene Design in Beijing, he moved to America and received his MFA from Boston University. With a career of over 35 years as a theatre set designer and scenic artist, his work has been seen on Broadway, on national TV, and at international conglomerates' events. Upon retirement, Shuxing took on the challenge to focus on painting again to fulfill his childhood dream. Today, he works from his basement studio which he finds to be a quiet, convenient, and creative working space. When he's not painting, he experiments with game engines to build virtual environments.

  • The Queen, I, Oil Painting
    By Malia Pettit
    Located in San Francisco, CA

    Artist Comments
    A shiny chess piece reflects artist Malia Pettit's love for portraying powerful women and captivating still-life subjects. With the ability to move in any direction and cover as much ground as she desires, the queen stands out as the most powerful figure on the board. The monochromatic palette adds a sense of elegance and simplicity to the piece.


    About the Artist
