Contemporary Asian artist, Thanh Binh does not overload the composition with details, rather, inclined towards a concise manner instead, accentuating the subject’s relaxed pose. Painted in white garment, the subjects — mother and newborn babies exude an innocence and angelic quality to them. The painting perfectly encapsulates tranquillity and the simplicity of the piece is what makes it truly attractive. Each of Thanh Binh’s paintings tells a tale of its own, garnering loyal following and aficionados.
