I AM
LOOKING AT YOU
with all my imagination
Lin Markus
Deep breathe, you are about to see a peek of the universe;
mysterious, evolving;
sacred, eternity.
Shaking and shivering you are scared,
burst into tears,
you are sad and then happy,
you see things, different things,
million years on earth,
you see yourself, inside of yourself,
you are seeing a peek of the universe,
But relax, it is not looking at you...

WELCOME TO LIN'S WORLD
Hand painted on a found shell which the creature passed away a long time ago
​
If I like you, I will put on a smiley face when I see you;
If I don't like you, I will wear a happy mask so you dont know that I dont like you.
Is it how the modern society works now?

Self portrait and David's portrait.
I paint/create myself and David a lot, so there are a lot of me(s) and a lot of my David(s) in my world.
PS: If you don't understand what I am talking about,
congratulations. You got my point.
PARADISE DREAMING
I discovered that Xanthorrhoea is my favourite Native Plant after I moved to Australia.
Fire cannot kill them but makes them stronger;
On a sunny day, I can stand next to one and pretend to have the same nice dream with it.

A STRANGE LOBSTER
Acrylic on canvas
50x60cm
$580
A strange lobster who doesn't have eyes.
But he has ears, a nose, two eye brows and a mouth.
And that's enough to keep him happily exploring the ocean world.
He touches food with his tentacles before he eats it;
He pats his friends with his tail to say 'Hi';
Sometimes he gives free rides to other creatures because the strange lobster is very kind;
But they usually end up lost and tangled within seaweeds;
You can't blame him, right?
He is just a strange lobster with no eyes after all.

DAVID
See, I told you,
I paint David a lot.
​
His favourite colour is blue;
He has two big ears;
He likes putting on big over exaggerating smiles;
He is a good boy;
His eyes can change colours, yellow in the morning, brown around lunch time, and green at night;
He has many tattoos, some are neat while some are not;
He has two hairy feet and they might be scary to look at;
But who cares,
I still paint David a lot.
