ABOUT MY ART
My name is Mealeva Tam
First of all , I am a painter ,so NO its not digital , its oil on linen ,rarely acrylic.
This is not about what you see , this is about how you feel. This is how I feel and how I express myself.
I've been often asked to tell more about myself, my need for creation and what inspires me. People think they would understand the meaning of my artwork if they understand who I am.
My inspiration , such a simple answer , my family , my love. That sounds "cliché", but my passion, my wish for sharing , my emotions such as nostalgy , melancholy , hope , all these things that drive me to create , come from a same source. There is no creation without Love.
What I live every days , what I learn , what I feel , I express it through my artworks, my painting, my writing...Reserved , introverted by nature , this is where I have found my exutory.
Though unleashing my deepest emotions proved difficult at the early stages of my work, I needed to find my own style , free from other artists's influences.
I think creation knows no limits and one does not need to copy anyone else.
Ideas arise every second from each of us , it's up to us to finds our own way to express them.
I tend not to name my paintings for I like to leave people to their own imagination. They can like it , they can hate it , I want people to get their own feeling about my artwork. However , I am often asked to " put a name " on each of my paintings , which I do.
But, still I believe we should not impose our own interpretation when it comes about Art.
