This painting exactly reflects the theme of this exhibition in Italy. It is called “Serenade of the Heart.” A serenade is a feeling, a mixture of feeling during the journey of the Dancing Girl. You can see different colors in this painting. The color represents different stages and different emotions portray the story of this girl. That is a moment of high and low of her journey. Meaning the difficulties, struggles, happiness, and joy. Those things are mixed together in this painting, but in each of the small stages, the Dancing Girl breaks through and starts to move again. So, you can see the breakthrough. The light here that she flies with the light together to continue her journey.

This one is different from the previous one. There’s a lot of green inside of it. One day, I took the bus to the Yangming Mountain. When I took off the bus, I saw a tree in front of me. The sun shines so shiny. It shined all over the tree. I depict this painting is that there is a light inside of our heart. No matter if you know the creator or not, He is inside of our hearts and the light will lead your path. At that moment, all my worries were completely shaken off from my body.

A self-taught artist, Liao spent several years in the financial industry before discovering her passion for painting.

At that moment, I didn’t know how to paint. I just used color and freely painted on the canvas. That is a journey and a process of my painting. I don’t think, I just paint freely from my heart and to the canvas. Each of my paintings actually represents my heart at that stage.

Liao has been creating art for a decade. Through her creations, she aspires to inspire audiences across the globe.
