I finished this painting LIVE, upside down… and nobody bought it.
After ocean waves, gravity, and a final aerial painting performance, my original mixed-media artwork reached a Seattle gallery auction.

Not one bid.

That’s the real artist journey—create, perform, face rejection, keep going.

Next: what happens when your art doesn’t sell?

Oops… I did it again. 🌊🎨

My canvas went straight into the water.
At this point, I’m not sure if I’m painting the ocean… or the ocean is painting for me.
And somehow, every splash made this piece more alive.
Ready for the reveal?

Every movement is art. Even the little ones we don’t notice at first.

A brushstroke, a turn of the wrist, a pause to breathe. That’s the story right there.

If you felt something watching this, that’s enough.

I just wanted to paint… somehow I became the whole company.

CEO, marketer, delivery driver, event planner… and occasionally an artist.
The glamorous reality of being a Seattle artist and creative entrepreneur.
Who else is running a one-person empire?

I thought creating the art was the hard part… 😂

600+ hours of painting. 3 original artworks. One massive 60-inch canvas. Custom pine frames… and a U-Haul because apparently my art has outgrown my car. 
The behind-the-scenes reality of being a Seattle artist preparing for an art exhibition. A little chaos, a lot of love, and absolutely no regrets.
And seeing my paintings finally hanging in the gallery? Worth every second. ❤️

🌿 You’re invited this Sunday!
📍 YuanRu Studio | Bellevue, WA @yuan.ru.art.center_bellevue

Come see what 600 hours of passion looks like.

A whole summer on the water… and somehow it ended up on one canvas. 
Paddleboard art, ocean waves, sunsets, mistakes, and a lot of paint.
This original ocean painting carries more than a summer art process — it carries the story of making it.
Which part would you want to see up close?

I didn’t know this would be my last ocean painting of the summer. … One more sunset, my paddleboard, my paint… and honestly, I just didn’t want summer to end yet.
So I stayed on the water a little longer and kept painting.
Would you keep a piece of this summer?

I told the internet nobody bought my art. Then this happened. 🌊🎨

Some hated my art. Others connected with it.
While they debated, I kept creating — and my original ocean painting, created on a beach in Hawaii, found its collector right there.
Art doesn’t have to speak to everyone. It has to reach the right person.
Where should I create next?

I broke my paddleboard trying to create this ocean painting. 🌊
For a moment, I thought the entire art project was over. But creating outdoors means accepting what you can’t control — waves, water, movement…and sometimes things breaking.
So I found another way and kept painting.

Real artists don’t use AI.” Okay… let’s talk about it.

This ocean painting came from real waves, real paint, movement and an unpredictable creative process.
AI or traditional art — the conversation is getting bigger.
But for me, the physical experience is part of the artwork.
Does knowing HOW art was created change how you see it?

People thought this was AI. It wasn’t.

I created this ocean painting with real waves, real movement and real paint — letting the Pacific Ocean become part of my art process.
No perfect studio. No controlled outcome.
Just art, nature and a little chaos.
Would you have thought it was AI?
