My latest watercolor series depict 12 animals of the Chinese Lunar calendar. In Chinese astrology, these animal signs are assigned by year, and represent what others perceive you as being or how you present yourself to the world.

I used vibrant colours and floral motifs to represent the beauty of each unique character.

Take a look at my previous posts about my sketchbook and watercolour alphabet.

Wow! So nice! It's also the first time I find a paining, where the snake (my zodiac) isn't either scary or looking like an over-sized earth worm.
