About the Item
'Children of Light' is an original acrylic painting by the Chinese-American artist Hsin-Lin Chiao. As in her other canvases, Hsin-Lin here uses abstraction to represent abstract concepts around spirituality and faith. The composition presents a field of tumultuous red constructed of small circles and polka dots. Above a rhapsodic sea of undulating lines, a series of white dots sweep upward between two circles and into a sphere of deep blues and greens. Read literally, perhaps these dots could be interpreted as the souls of the saved being harrowed from hell or being swept away from the earthly plane. Such a literal interpretation, however, is probably a misguided attempt by the viewer to grant narrative structure to an otherwise abstract image. It is nonetheless clear that Hsin-Lin adores the use of pattern, repetition, and the form of the circle. Her impulse to use the circle as a symbol of spiritual ideas not only ties into the rich history of Chinese art, but also reflects the impulses of modern masters like Kazimir Malevich. Malevich, known for his Suprematist compositions that pushed the limitations of painting, often used pure forms like squares and crosses to reference the perfect and unknowable form of God. Hsin-Lin does much the same.

Hsin-Lin Chiao’s paintings form an intimate expression of life, revealing its beauty, complexities, and contradictions. Her objective is to articulate the intricacies of everyday life, looking beneath the surface of norms and beliefs, while always remaining connected to nature. She works with a combination of acrylic, colored pencils, and molding paste on canvas to realize this objective.
Hsin-Lin's approach to art is organic and intimate, as it arises out of her interactions with books, music, and people. But most titles such as "Faith," "Prayer," "Draw Me Closer to You," "Love That Lasts," and "Passion of the Christ" are inspired by God through events in her life, events that brought her closer to her Heavenly Father.
God was faithful over the years, and Hsin-Lin's relationship with Him helped her to start a new life and to reap the very best of it. Her art has been the core of this new beginning, and all of her feelings and emotions of her past experiences are deeply exposed through her work. Hsin-Lin says, "I feel as if God sends designs right through my mind and into my fingertips."
Besides painting, Hsin-Lin enjoys interior design, fashion, ballet, and playing the violin. She is a woman of great strength, integrity, courage, and talent. Her life and character expressed through her art is an enormous blessing to the world.

'Hunters' original acrylic painting signed by Stella Atal
Located in Milwaukee, WI
The present painting is a bold an vibrant work by the artist and fashion designer Stella Atal. The image contains five abstract, cleanly-drawn figures against bright fields of green and yellow. The figures, representing hunters, are the very same that can be seen on her couture designs, referencing the history of African art, design and fashion.

60.63 x 42.5 inches, frame
Signed 'Atal S' lower right
Framed to conservation standards using archival materials including UV5 Plexiglas to inhibit fading; housed in a wood modern profile gold moulding.
Stella Atal (Ugandan, active Paris, b. 1983) is a painter and fashion designer, and is the founder, owner and chief executive of Atal Stella Fashion House, with locations in Paris, France. She was born in the Northern Region of Uganda, along the northern shores of Lake Kyoga. Stella started her schooling in Kampala, Uganda's capital and largest city. She relocated to Kenya and continued her education there. Later, she completed her education in the United Kingdom. She has a bachelors and a master's degree in Fine Art.
She comfortably paints both miniature and large wall hangings using acrylics and water- based textile paints, she uses materials such as bark cloth, recycled paper made out of water hyacinth, Hessian, canvas and many other tradition materials. Her unique art pieces are inspired by ancient and contemporary African designs. They depict typical village scenes of life around Lake Victoria.
'Painting is the only way I can get back to my roots by using our cultural materials such as bark cloth that was used by our ancestors and helps me preserve my culture through some of the motifs I use that were used long ago as signs of belief and worship in the African culture.'
Her distinctive artwork is well known in Uganda and throughout East Africa. Her bold, fluid lines explore complex subjects such as women empowerment and national development with economy and grace. Her central artistic preoccupation is the continuation of distinctively African culture.
In 2007, she started her own label, Atal Stella. There she focuses on using what is locally available, including eco-friendly, natural and re-cycled material. Her designs have showcased at the Africa Fashion Week New York, in 2010 and at the Green Fashion...
