Acrylic on Canvas (Framed in an oak floating frame).

Framed size: 38 x 38 x 2 inches.

Ethereal and calming, Novi Lim's painting transports its audience to a land that is both dreamlike yet familiar. Lim Finds inspiration in the natural world and seeks to capture their essence through an organic and sensory creative process. In the artist's own words: "Often, imagining a mythical flower that blooms and lit up in the nighttime or seeing something as simple as the calming gradient of the colorful sky at sundown, or the surface of water that glimmers which makes me wonder about the mystery of the deepest oceans -- piqued my creative process and subliminal stimuli." Guided by instinctive feeling, Lim lets the movements of her paintbrush flow as she experiments with atmospheric lighting, transparency, and color. The result is an ambiguous landscape that treads between the subconscious and waking world.

North Carolina artist Novi Lim uses art as a therapeutic way for a moment to be in her own element, as a safe haven from the world.  She delves into the depth, immerses, and transports herself and the viewer to an imaginary world where she lets go of her subconscious. She evokes the atmospheric mood of melancholy, opulence, and strength in her paintings. Adding her own markings and oriental elements is something that's embedded in and visualizes her identity. 

A perfect piece to start or add to your art collection or buy as a gift for your family, friend, or loved one!
