The Rhythm of Nature / 2022 Intermediate Watercolor Course Exhibition

​Exhibition date: May 7 - May 21, 2022

Exhibition Statement

Most of the artists in this exhibition have occupations unrelated to the professional art field. In addition to being an art teacher, a designer, and a freelance illustrator, the artists featured in this show have a range of careers, including a programmer, medical doctor, consultant, actress, and professors teaching economics and linguistics.

Although they have different careers, these passionate artists have one thing in common. They live life abundantly and rewardingly through their self-reflection and passion for their chosen path, whether becoming an artist as a second career or having a lifetime hobby if they were not already working in the art field.

Watercolor painting is a healing process, and it comes from one's innermost feelings. The value of painting lies in the pure expression of one's individuality, philosophy, and life experiences. As you can see, they have achieved their goal of communicating through their visual language and developing their unique art worlds. This exhibition will inspire people and allow us to look at and feel the world around us from a new perspective with which to appreciate our own and others' interesting lives.
