Inspired by: Lantern Festivals in ancient China

Evolving directorially from the elementary sketch of geometric forms, my gaze was captivated - ensnared in conversation between tradition and metamorphosis. The ethereal illumination of ancient Lantern Festivals whispered truths about a culture steeped enchantingly in history's embrace; their light blooming wistfully upon sepia-toned newspaper textures. In this symphony where realism danced with abstraction, I found an exquisite equilibrium—a recital told through strokes humble yet resplendent.
