Yaoling Lee, Painter

“I submit five paintings. They are oil on canvass. I usually work from life, meaning I go out. Those are sunsets so I go out by the seaside, I sit by the seaside and I wait for the moment or I start painting and the sun sets and I paint how I feel and what I see. So those I created are inspired by the sunset by the seaside in Belize City. I will be sharing my experiencing, adding mostly journey cause I stop painting for more than ten years because I got married and got three kids. And I think it is something I would like to share with women especially. I think it is a matter of choice. What do you want? I ask myself what do I want. Once you make decision, you just have to go for it. Doesn’t matter, we just have to go through it; good and bad. But I am so happy, I have three beautiful children and now it’s my time – I got more time now – and I’m so happy I am able to do what I love to do and just grateful.”
