VISUAL ARTIST STATEMENT OF: MS LINDA LOOI
Linda Looi a visual artist in the field of fine arts, specializing in photography artworks and acrylic paintings. Her abilities and skills for paintings and photography were cultivated and nurtured throughout her life, with the process of self-discovering her interest and aptitude for nature. This long journey has now led to her current interest of sharing her talent to all - both internationally, as well as locally, as an artist for the contemporary individual of the 21st century.
The artist gets her inspiration through nature and spirituality, and also from eastern and western methodology, preferring to specialize in realistic, naturalistic and representational free hand sketching-drawings and paintings of flora (flowers and plants), fauna (animals),and landscapes (aerial), including seascapes, riverscapes and urbanscapes. In photography, she likes to specialize in nature: macro fine art (documentary)types, in flora, fauna (including insects), landscapes and architecture. Her artworks reflect her perceptions, beliefs, visions, personality, moods and aptitudes.
Each of her original artworks carries its own weight of distinctive uniqueness and can be appreciated by all - both young and old, singles, couples and families, as well as people from all nationalities and cultures.
