A Basket of Sunflowers

By Christina Lau Lay Lian, Mouth and Foot Painting Artists (MFPA)

In this painting, Christina transforms a traditional still-life of a woven basket filled with sunflowers into a gentle study of warmth and everyday beauty. The addition of small white filler flowers adds softness to the arrangement, while the warm palette of yellows and oranges is grounded by a cool blue background. Moving between expressive and controlled brushwork, the painting develops a gentle rhythm that feels unforced, carrying a soft awareness of the simple beauty found in ordinary things.
