Spring Soft Pastel Painting
I have always sensed that the "important things" lie beneath the surface—layered and waiting for those who observe closely to discover them. They are not hidden by design; rather, they seem to yearn to be found, Mengyu says. Calling to those who live mindfully, they emerge in the quiet depths of verdant green as an inexhaustible spring of abundance and luminous mystery. Mengyu's Spring evokes the hidden vitality of a secret spring under strong light. At its center, a radiant, star-shaped core emerges from a deep verdant green background, which gradually transitions toward the center through layers of overlapping colors. The droplets of varying sizes add both visual richness and a sense of flowing movement, making the colors shimmer and pulse with life. This work invites the viewer to explore its depth, reflecting Mengyu's contemplation of life, the cosmos, and the subtle, layered beauty that lies just beneath the surface.
