fire horse ~ 🔥
tenderly caring for the small embers burning within until they blaze forth with passionate resolve.

life would be colourless if not for the vibrancy of being true to who you are.

flatlay photo showcasing an original painting by moonchu with predominate shades of deep reds/magentas, illustrating a leaping horse with a tilted head. a very strongly stubborn and passionate horse! as indicated by the yellow-orange-red illuminated bursts of fire surrounding it. it appears to be floating in space somewhere. a golden constellation faintly sparkles within the body of the horse. an elaborate gold gilded filigree borders the painting. the rest of the flatlay is on a white background with random objects like magenta string and small scissors. paintbrush, inital horse sketch, in-progress horse painting, and colour swatches.

close up photo of an original painting by moonchu. very textured on cold press paper, lots of vibrant and deep, dark rich reds and oranges and yellows. fire-y cosmic clouds and stars. obvious abolish ice message, but also, so much more. if that makes sense. everything feels terrible. the full painting is of the lunar new year horse, to be shown later.

camellias symbolize perseverance, love, beauty. my mother embodied all of those things (and many more), so i painted her in a lush garden of camellia trees.

i wish that i could talk to her.

happy birthday, mom ! 🫶🍓
