 As a lover of flowers, Pearl is fortunate to have a floral garden to draw endless inspiration from. The light caressing each flower in her garden, albeit fleetingly, can be delicate or bold.  Her travels around the world have given her a treasure trove of sketches and images for a lifetime of landscapes to paint.  As a professional photographer, together with her innate sense of composition, gives her painting a sense of realism few master.

"For me, flowers are the most delicate reminder of life's journey. Their growth represents the sequence of life passing by. The flowers bud, bloom and dies. Immediacy is so important when painting flowers.  It is a race against time, you have to be there at the right moment to be able to capture their beauty.  Sometimes, you get only one chance."
