Mandala Patterns With An Orange Colored Butterfly Refer The Beauty Of Life

2020

About the Item

Life Is Wonderful #10 Sarong, batik patterns and butterfly are three main elements to compose Tony Ng’s paintings. Viewers may create initial impressions these three symbols highlight Malaysian culture. However, Tony Ng would like to share beyond culture identity and his paintings contain more humanistic cares than surface. When the artist observes wrinkles on the sarong, they are not noticeable, on the contrary, they mark times and memories that underline beauty of sarong. Everything happens in our life are not always happy. Failure and loss are inevitable and sometimes are unpredictable but trying to face challenges may leave more beautiful marks in our life path. A butterfly always can be seen besides sarong. Butterfly implies a short but amazing life experience in Tony Ng’s paintings. A butterfly is not born to be a beautiful creature. The caterpillar transforms its body, eventually emerging as a beautiful butterfly. Most of butterflies live only one or two weeks, but they leave glamorous moments in the world. No matter a beautiful sarong has many stains or creases, and no matter a butterfly lives in long or short life, true beauty is last long without limits. Tony Ng believes we, as a human being, faces failures and challenges since we were born. Whatsoever humans still work hard as the life is beautiful!

"Brilliant #2", Peranakan Baba Nyonya Straits Chinese Kamcheng Porcelain, Green
By Tony Ng

Tony lived with his grandmother when he was a child. He has seen many Peranakan tableware at her house. Although the artist is not the descendent of Peranakan, he is deeply influenced by multicultural environment in his growth background.

Her expressive style emphasizes line structure, creating vibrant paintings that celebrate intricate details. By skillfully applying layers of texture, Newsome brings forth paintings that exude depth and vitality. This one-of-a-kind 14-inch high by 11-inch wide mixed-media artwork is created with acrylic and pencil on watercolor paper. This artwork is not framed.

From the explosive energy and grace of the animals depicted to the meticulous details capturing fleeting moments in time, Newsome's skillful hand guides us through a mesmerizing visual journey. Newsome says about her work: “Painting is my passion; I enjoy the process of capturing something beautiful and organic while creating contrast with vibrant and pastel colors combined with quiet spaces and bold mark-making. My subject matter is often plants or animals that make me feel empowered or inspired as metaphors for my own life experiences.” Born in the picturesque landscapes of Columbus, Georgia, and nurtured on a quaint farm in Alabama, Kelly Newsome's artistic journey is deeply intertwined with the rural charm that surrounded her formative years. From exploring the vast fields to immersing herself in the rich flora and fauna, Newsome's love for nature becomes not just an inspiration but a vivid thread woven into the canvas of her life and art. Kelly Newsome's artistic prowess began to flourish during her tenure at Troy University, where her commitment to the craft earned her sponsorship from Chroma's Atelier Interactive brand of paint. This significant milestone not only showcases Newsome's dedication but also aligns her with recognized brands, emphasizing the quality and uniqueness of her art. From gallery exhibitions at Artspace Warehouse in Los Angeles to global art fairs and private acquisitions, Newsome's art now resonates on an international scale throughout the United States and beyond.
