Kate Huang, ABTF 2

I’ve always loved drawing and painting, ever since I have memories, I was always drawing on the paper, the wall, or the textbook. I have once put aside the drawing pens and stepped onto the “safer path” to be a business woman, but the calling from true passion only got louder as time went by. Therefore 4 years ago, I said good bye to my 12 years career life and the old identity, started from ground 0 as a painter, a poet, an illustration artist, and a silver jewelry maker, set off for the unknown.

I love creating, it is the time when I feel the most real, I act truthfully, seeing the world with serene clarity and back to the ultimate truth that all things on both sides of the duality, are beauty. I hardily feel the need to use my art to make a statement, being an artist to me is like being a translator for the energy of the universe, a converter, a conduit, stretched wide to let passion and inspiration roar through, paintings are done through me, each piece is for someone unique out there. I believe in art, in it’s healing power. While creating, I am brave enough to steer the ship into the center of emotion and allow the body to be a vessel, to conduct it through limbs and vocal chords, and fingertips onto canvas, into music, and into dance. And I believe in it’s ability of reaching out to hearts, to touch a heart with a painting, the connection happens in an instant, in the most truthful and honest way.

Constance Woods, ABTF 2

I have been painting,drawing and playing with paint since I was in my early 20s. I have shown my work professionally, led art workshops and taught art history informally. It, art is a part of the way I communicate with others and learn from others. This opportunity to be a participant in Artists Beat The Flood, is a new chance to meet people, share thoughts and dreams and be part of a larger community of concerned, involved and creative people. I invite everyone to help me complete the canvas.
