She told Việt Nam News that with a desire to convey her love of life, her collection depicts majestic mountain ranges, golden rice fields, historical sites, fragrant lotus flowers, bright red flowers, animals, colours symbolising human destiny, the five elements of the universe and other main themes.
The Turtle Tower locally known as Tháp Rùa, a well-known symbol of Hà Nội and Việt Nam, is more charming with lotus flowers around it. |
“Some of the money I make from selling my paintings will be donated to charitable causes, such as helping disadvantaged dialysis patients, pupils from poor mountainous areas, and others,” said Hường, adding that she wishes to share responsibilities with the community.
