Most of Katy’s paintings are inspired by people around her and the scenes of daily life in Ho Chi Minh City. But there‘s a totally different side to her work, the vibrant landscape and forest paintings. Initially painted as realistic landscape paintings, Katy quickly progressed beyond those early images towards bolder, dramatic, contemporary work.
Light filters through the intense colors compositions, the trees now a lighter, almost whimsical outline further enhanced by the luminescence of her oil paints. “Beyond Shades of Green” truly is Lim Khim Katy, dreaming today of lands and times beyond.
