Dorothy Yung Original Watercolor
16” x 12”

This striking watercolor by Dorothy Yung captures the essence of her signature style—playful yet deeply expressive, alive with motion and emotion. At the heart of the composition, bold strokes of golden yellow, cobalt blue, and earthy browns swirl into a dreamlike figure, suggesting both landscape and human form. Fine textural details and rhythmic patterns give the piece a lyrical quality, while the surrounding washes of soft blues evoke water, flow, and openness.

Dorothy’s work often reflects a merging of inner worlds and outer landscapes, where abstraction becomes a bridge between the spirit and the senses. Here, her use of color radiates warmth and vitality, contrasted with the serenity of the oceanic blues that frame the composition. The result is a painting that feels both intimate and expansive—an invitation to pause, reflect, and connect with something beyond the immediate.

Originally from Hong Kong and later a resident of Kaua'i, Dorothy Yung is celebrated for her ability to weave cultural influences, natural inspiration, and emotional resonance into her work. Her paintings have been exhibited widely and are cherished by collectors who value her unique blend of spontaneity and grace.
