Moonlady, Hua Dan from Peking Opera

Meet Moonlady — a Hua Dan from Peking Opera, painted as my tribute to the Mid-Autumn Festival. Adorned in silk blossoms of peach and peony, crowned with an ornate silver headpiece that glitters beneath the moonlight, she embodies my own telling of Chang’E’s timeless tale. A story of grace, longing, and romance, woven into the glow of the full moon.

May her presence remind us to pause, look up, and find beauty in the light that connects us across time and tradition. 🌸🌙
