李淑櫻 畫冊
Nami Yang
After 40 years of painting Nami has realized that everyday life experiences are the foundations of art. This may not be the case for everyone, but it certainly is for her. In the 1980’s she studied stained glasswork. The use of lines and shapes in this type of art influenced her style of painting. In the 1990’s an intense life change brought about new ideas for her “Life Series” and “Women Series”. In the face of difficult circumstances in the 2000’s, faith and religion brought comfort, leading to the creation of her “Religion Series” and “Faces Series”.
In the recent series “Through the Heart” you may notice that she uses warm colors and red tones throughout her works, signifying life, liveliness, and positive thinking, as well as the color of the heart itself. She also uses abstract images to convey her thoughts and emotions. Nami believes that paintings and artwork arise from the heart. She envisions that the audience will be able to experience her heart and feelings by seeing her paintings.
歷經40餘年的彩繪生涯，李淑櫻才算真正體會到藝術深受每天生活的影響。1980年代她作彩色玻璃的經驗 ，大大的影響她在畫面上的切割線與面，乃至成為她曰後在繪畫上的獨特風格。1990年代，由於生活的驟 變而催生了”生命系列”與__女人系列”。而在她面對一生中最大的困境時，由信仰所帶來的安慰，導引 她創作了 “宗教系列”。最近在”顏面系列”之後她又加入了”彩繪心生系列”，把幾乎是她繪畫特色的橘 紅更加紅彩。她要藉著血液般的色溫來強調那來自内心充沛的生命活力與正面的想法，她相信藝術創作源 自於心，祈願每一位觀賞者都能經由畫面與她的藝術心靈相通。
