This painting was conceived in London while I was on a tube in London, on my way to work and finding myself being sited next to a young mother and her toddler. I was unfulfilled in my work and was feeling deep emptiness within, acutely aware of the ticking of my biological clock. The woman reading the Financial Times in the tube wearing a suit represents the angst-ridden my own state of mind in those London years. The younger woman also eye-balls the working woman with a certain sense of loss - of her choice that precludes her from building a career in the society.

Gina Son is a Korean-American Cafe-Scene Painter based in Honolulu. A global nomad, she has lived, worked and experienced observing people and sampling the ambiance in cafes in Paris, Rome, London, Tokyo, Seoul and Santorini. Gina has always been artistically inclined since her childhood, winning awards in her early formative years (e.g. the National Artistic Gold Key award in high school). She has taken art throughout her education. Being romantic at heart, she is deeply influenced by the 19th C. Impressionism masters such as Renoir and Degas, Monet and their depictions of femeninity. As a perpetual dreamer, she endeavors to paint the beauty of human connections, shared affinity, positive and in hopeful messages of love and a life-well-lived in her paintings.
