Original artwork description:

This is my abstract oil painting series "Lion dance", including red, yellow, white and black.
Lion dance is a form of traditional dance in Chinese culture and other Asian countries in which performers mimic a lion's movements in a lion costume to bring good luck and fortune. The lion dance is usually performed during the Chinese New Year and other Chinese traditional, cultural and religious festivals. It may also be performed at important occasions such as business opening events, special celebrations or wedding ceremonies, or may be used to honor special guests by the Chinese communities.

Lion dance has long history that can be traced back around A.D. 500, more than 1500 years ago. It has major influence on culture of east Asian. Nowadays, you can find different types of lion dance in China, Japan, Korea, Singapore, Indonesia and many more countries.

In the beginning I am not sure how many pieces should be in this series. But after studying loads of photos I choose four color theme, white, black, red and yellow as they are the most popular colors for lion dance costume.
I hope you enjoy this series. And please feel free to contact me with any question.
Although I have tried my best to match the color of digital profile and the actual product, the color might still vary depending on different monitor settings. Please be aware of this fact.
Note, I will refund overcharged shipping cost if there is any.
