Celebration

Watercolour
48.5 x 36 cm

Celebration is an event to share happiness during an important occasion such as the Chinese New Year, birthdays and business prosperity. As part of the celebration, the lion dance is performed to bring in good luck and fortune. The god of fortune is also a welcoming sight.

My painting shows happiness being shared with young and old, dependable and dependent. Volunteers tend to the needy as part of community care. 

The atmosphere is filled with excitement as the performers act out their choreographed movements to the beats of drums, crash of gongs and clangours of cymbals.
