Beauty and Beast

Lily Van Dyck

Beauty and Beast

One of my girlfriends and her husband were born in the year of the “Tiger” (Chinese horoscope). When I finished the “Power Struggle” wood burning piece, I wanted give her a print for her birthday. She did not like it. Maybe she hates the idea of two tigers fighting. After I completed the “Beauty and Beast”, I thought she would like that one better. Guess what! She refused to have that one as well.

When I showed this painting to another friend, she said: “Wow, great! A beauty playing the flute can make a tiger listen; we should try this on men.” In fact, my original thought is that the world is magnificent. No matter whether human being or animal, we can all share this space together.

To the animal lovers,

Lily Van Dyck

    Some people read too much into things – maybe too much of what is actually going on in their mind and no-one else’s… It’s a beautiful painting, their loss.

    Stunning. As a photographer here, it is not often that a non-photographic work catches my eye. But this certainly did – it is wonderful!
