Christine’s mentor, Prof Chao Shao An, would pen his calligraphy on her outstanding pieces, like this one. Reflective of her hallmark work of children set in a rural setting, running chores and having fun, in this piece Christine said she was inspired to convey that only the purest of souls (and children are symbols of innocence) get to ascend to heaven.
This is a large piece we have to let go because our new home has no wall space big enough for it.
