Red has long held great significance for Asian cultures, symbolizing good luck, joy and happiness. Here in the form of a boldly coloured ginger jar and coupled with the 'Good Fortune' writings on the scroll and its lucky charm, I hope that this painting indeed does bring good fortune to all who see it. Complimented by the soft and delicate orchids and gentle play of light, I hope that it captures both the beauty and mysticism of these cultures.
