Chinese Faces (Jia Ren) Nr. 3 Print

he most fascinating subject of art is the human face. Is it male or is it female? Is it old or is it young? Is it Asian or Caucasian? Is it Chinese or Japanese? The human being behind the face - is it happy or is it sad? Is it surprised or is it bored? What's the interaction between that human being and me - the viewer? In my art work I am still in the beginning to deal with these questions, to understand the human face, to understand the colours and to handle with the different materials, techniques and styles. Liu Shi Shi, one of the most famous actresses in China nowadays, is personifying the glorious time of earlier dynasties. Her face is showing the intensive fragility of high quality fine bone chine. This painting is inspired by a well known foto image of Liu Shi Shi. I decided to develop my painting on rough canvas. Thus the colours of the painting are changing when you place it on a dark respectively on a bright background. You see the difference when you look at the additional image.
