CHINESE NEW YEAR
Original Painting
Created in honor of the Year of the Horse within the Chinese New Year tradition, Chinese NEW YEAR is a celebration of momentum, renewal, and fearless forward motion. In Chinese symbolism, the horse represents strength, independence, vitality, and success earned through courage — qualities embodied in the powerful rider who moves confidently through a dreamlike landscape of light and color.
Suspended parasols bloom like protective canopies among silhouetted trees, while glowing lanterns illuminate the path ahead, echoing the rituals of welcoming prosperity and good fortune into a new cycle. The composition captures the emotional essence of transition — the sacred pause between what has been and what is about to unfold.
Layered textures and luminous tones create depth and movement, blending bold contrast with refined softness. Jewel-toned accents emerge from airy pastels, producing a visual harmony that feels both celebratory and contemplative — a balance between tradition and modern expression.
NEW YEAR is more than a painting; it is an intention set in motion. Designed for collectors who value symbolism and story, the work honors cultural heritage while embodying the universal desire to begin again with clarity, strength, and grace.
