This Artist's Proof is the fruit of the first stage of the painting process. Yi then carries on finishing the painting with another dreamscape and story. Therefore, she transforms the picture from existence to history and memory of a painting.

The name Portrait of the Artist as a Cat says it all; she placed herself in a semi-tropical greenhouse full of colours and a body of water in the background, despite she painted the painting on a very cold February. She portrayed herself as a big cat, an attempt to bring herself closer to her cat’s world, this is the first painting about her rescue cat, Sonny. Later on, she painted the cat in another major painting, which inspired the name of the series- Spring Cats and the Sunny Factory. © Shizico Yi

About the painting:

Howard Hodgkin had an infatuation with India, he traveled to India over 30 times in his life. Hodgkin would sit in Banganga Tank next to the water, watching people wearing colourful Saris sitting in a row, lilac, pink, orange, and yellow in between; these colours and forms in his memories would then seep into his paintings when he later painted in the studio.


Here is one of the new works, inspired by Hodgkin which started my latest collection- Spring Cats and Sunny Factory.

« Forever Spring » is named after the Jade Vines and Dahlias in the painting. Jade Vines are one of the unique plants that bloom in early spring. Dahlias flower from summer into early winter when most plants are fading. 

They are the symbols of life, vitality, and beauty.

The painterly language of these colours and semi-abstraction is a nod to Matisse and Hodgkin who are the inspirations of this latest series. - Spring Cats and Sunny Factory---Spring Exhibition 2023.


About Spring Exhibition Series:

" What these paintings of the Spring Exhibition Series try to do is to push impressionism forward toward Matisse; having a very daring courtship with colours and the simplicity of lines and forms, then to move even further closer to the language of Howard Hodgkin, making my new works under this lineage of less about the realistic representation, much more about the colours and its meaning behind the brushstrokes, to celebrate the power of imaginary spaces.


These two masters, Matisse and Hodgkin are at the two ends of the dial, and in between is my playground for this Series.

About 

« A Cat, a Mirror and the Garden » is a painting about how spaces merge as one; the space of nature, the space of the viewer, and the reflective space in the mirror. Each space occupies its own time. 

I painted this painting when London was under 6 degrees, yet nature finds its rhythm; these fritillaria bulbs were underground over the long winter, and despite rain and cold, they bloom into a sea of colours; they are the symbol of defiance, the steel grit of living we can find in humble flowers.

£320.00

29.6 x 21 CM

Gouache, ink on Fine Art watercolour paper

Heavy weight 300GSM watercolour paper


These drawing of her garden are at Shizico's most intimate moments.

The act of drawing is a very direct way to contour one's life and how she sees the world around her. Every line is a way to touch each fine grain of a thing. The drawing contours a person's life and memory, like people do throughout one's life.


Constant Gardener is an on-going project in memory of Favor, her late dog. In 2015, Shizico started gardening to make a garden for Favor to recover. After Favor died, this garden project continued as Favor Memorial Garden in memory of his precious presence.


Alongside gardening, Shizico started a series of drawings and plain air paintings in this Memorial Garden, trying to keep the blooms and seasons frozen in time.

Every line in a drawing is her way of touching each fine grain of a thing. Shizico believes that drawings contour a person's life like memory and what people do for one's life.

This drawing is the only drawing of Lupins she made in 2022. Lupins’ sculptural form provides a chance for Shizico to apply depth by layering charcoals and oil pastels on ink which is the visual discovery that Shizico has practiced since 2017.

Lady and Her Dog was the first painting Shizico was able to paint after Favor, her late dog-son, died. It took Shizu 100s of days to paint and work again after losing Favor. This painting is to relive the frozen moment of their embracing, based on a photo taken a month before Favor died. (2017)

The charcoal drawings of their hands holding and intertwined, the raw energy of the markings of Favor's coat contrast with the thick textured hairs of Shizu and the misty blue of the garment and the air around them. The contrast of these textures and colours describes the separation between two worlds, a universal feeling of human nature. Arts turn grief into a reunion through an artist's hands, making art to create a 3rd space beyond this synthetic universe we are living in. 


This edition is made with the finest finishing on Aluminium, ready to hang.

" Birdwatching was the passion we shared amongst many things, it is very close to our hearts. We often watched birds together. Kew was the place we stayed the most watching various bird habitats over the River Thames and lakes in the gardens. We used to watch birds for hours and talk about...everything or nothing. That is the closest moment to paradise on earth for me. Now, he is in paradise. I am continuing our birdwatching tradition here on earth, continuing talking to him through birds. And with innocent wishful thinking, I know he is listening to me...about everything. "

And with innocent wishful thinking, I know he is listening to me...about everything. "

This ink drawing is featured on the iconic poster of the award-winning film, Shizico on Arts. It's also the image of her name card over the years. ( both viewed in pictures ) 


The image was inspired by pictures of her reflections on the glasses of windows or doors she took over the years; it is a recurrent picture in her mind, the way she sees herself behind the camera. Here the artist is armed with one of the tools she makes art with; the camera is her armour and the extension of herself as an artist.

Oil and acrylic on canvas 1016mm x 762 mm (40 x 30-inches) © Shizico Yi

To document the streets they've walked and her late dog's favourite trees, Shizico embarked on a series of Plein air paintings in autumn, the season when Favor died. The colours of the turning leaves symbolise our aging. Standing hours each day painting in the chilly London autumn air kept the artist alerted to one's vulnerability, yet, within the colours of nature, one finds the energy of restoration and allowing time to contemplate the memory of their decade-long walks.

About the painting:

This painting is one of the Summer Bloom series Shizico started in 2022.

In 2017, Shizico lost her beloved dog-son Favor to Wobbler Syndrome after four years of battle with this neurology disease.

Constant Gardener is an ongoing project in memory of Favor. Shizico started gardening in 2015; she took it as a project to make a garden for Favor to recover. After Favor died, this garden project continued as Favor Memorial Garden in memory of his precious presence. (2015- 2022 ongoing)

Alongside gardening, Shizico started a series of drawings and plain air paintings in this Memorial garden, trying to keep the blooms and seasons frozen in time.

About Birdwatch Series 2023


" Birdwatching was the passion we shared amongst many things, it is very close to our hearts. We often watched birds together. Kew was the place we stayed the most watching various bird habitats over the River Thames and lakes in the gardens. We used to watch birds for hours and talk about...everything or nothing. That is the closest moment to paradise on earth for me. Now, he is in paradise. I am continuing our birdwatching tradition here on earth, continuing talking to him through birds. And with innocent wishful thinking, I know he is listening to me...about everything. "

About Shizico Yi, PhD in Fine Art based in London.

I paint moments, I cast time in sculptures, I do installations to open space, I make films to hold true, I design and make clothes,
I am the dying breed of the artist that really makes things;
I have a Ph.D. in Fine Art, I am based in London, but home is where my animals are, on earth or in heaven. 
Oh, I am a gardener too,

​I want to keep on making works that connect to you,
I believe that arts should be available to all, not just to a small group. 
I also believe good arts hold value in time because time tells the truth, and sound arts speak with that voice.
I hope through this online shop that, you can own good art,
these artworks can bring enlightenment to your daily life, 

hope you can join me, to own a piece of me through having my artworks.
so I can keep doing good works
and with your collection, 
we can grow old together, 
that is a sweet thing that I like to do
​and I cannot do it without you.

I am trying to set up my Studio Gallery, 
I need your support in my work so I can make that space a real place
where I can create works, do installations, hold residencies and collaborate with other artists,
if possible, to run an in-house design studio for my clothesline, 
my clothes are rather lovely; I hope one day you can wear them too,
It sounds a lot, I know,
but I promise you, I will have only one cat and no dog.
my garden has 100s of birds and dozens of squirrels every day,
few foxes in the night,
one moon, million stars, 
one wish, 
to make art.

With love and gratitude 
Yours sincerely
Shizico Yi
