前言

艺术之于孩子，一如阳光之于花朵！阳光为花朵带来热度与炫丽，却不增加花朵本身的重量！融入孩子生活的艺术，它释放了孩子内心的重压，表现了孩子对生活、对社会的思考与创意，给孩子们一个自由翱翔的空间！

依云与博源，是一对从小在艺术海洋里翱翔的伙伴！作为她们的老师和家长，我看着她们因艺术结缘，在艺术的浸润里得到充实、升华；看着她们为了艺术创作而一起旅行、写生；看着她们为了解社会而一起参与了很多公益项目，相互支持与鼓励！我不光看到了无处不在的幸福场景，更看到了像姐妹一样的亲情！这应该就是艺术强大的魅力吧！

本次画展是两位年轻艺术家在人生成长过程中，相互交织共同创作的系列作品！作品虽然青涩，但每一幅都饱含深情，源于原创，充满了幸福的味道！

人生是一场苦旅，但拥有幸福能力的人，他的人生终将是美好的！拥有幸福的能力的人，也会是周边人心中的太阳！

PREFACE

Art to children is like sunlight to a flower. A blooming flower nourished with the heat of the sun bears no burden from its light.

Introducing art into the life of a child would help to express their thoughts on life and society, then surround such thoughts with creativity. Art provides a space to discover freely, therefore aiding in the alleviation of stress as well.

Yiyun and Boyuan grew up sailing together in the ocean of art. As the teacher of one and parent of another, I stood witness as they were bonded, enriched, and sublimated by art. I have watched them travel between vistas and sketch together; participate in artistic social welfare programs together; think, reflect and dream together. They have always supported and encouraged one another, not only as peers but as sisters, and as family. To me, this power that so seamlessly conjoined the two would be the unique charm of art.

This exhibition displays a series of artworks that the two budding artists co-created. It symbolizes their friendship and growth. Their artworks, while still immature, are packed full of dedication, originality, and unapologetic happiness.

Life is, for the most part, a bitter journey. And yet, the ones who have the ability of happiness will eventually build out of it, something wonderful. The ones who have this ability, ones that understand it, will eventually be able to shed their light onto everyone around, warming them in their radiant beams of sunlight.
