Woman Relaxes with Foot Soaking - Chinese Modern Art

This mother's had a long day and now relaxes with a nice foot soak. Meanwhile, little boy enjoys some candied fruit on a stick and her cat licks its paws.

About the artist...

About the artwork...

This style of Chinese art combines the elements of abstract and modern art, while maintaining a flair of folk art as well.
Certainly this style is in a category all of its own.

Material used in this work is known as "shui fen" in Chinese (paint powder and water - similar to gouache).

Because this is a form of Asian modern art, we did not have it mounted with a silk border (as most of our traditional artwork is). Instead, it is on the raw, and rather lightweight paper. This keeps your cost down, and allows you to decide how you want to frame your modern Asian art.
