A Painting Of Jesus Holding A Book And A Heart

Morning city scene in Petaling Jaya. A 10 year old chinese boy and his grandmother.  As they weave through the narrow sidewalk,  taxis zip by, buses screech to a halt at stoplights, motorbikes wend their way through the stopped traffic, trying to get a head start when the light turns green.  People in the informal businesses set up along the sidewalks call out greetings in a mix of Cantonese, Malay, and English. The sky, still soft with the remnants of dawn, and yet already heavy with humid heat, hinted at another sweltering afternoon ahead.

Siu Zi is a 10 year old Chinese girl in Guangzhou. Late one humid evening, Siu Zi's father meets with a discreet man known simply as Mr. Chen.  In a quiet corner of a small teahouse near the back alleys of Guangzhou, Mr. Chen explains, in careful whispers, how he can help the family obtain the documents they needed to leave the country safely. Other patrons are in the teahouse, and a waiter stands nearby, but nobody can hear what Mr. Chen is saying.  It's safe to talk here.

Soft Pastel Watercolor Style, Children's Storybook Illustration, a heartwarming scene under a decorated Christmas tree. Two fluffy kittens, one a ginger tabby and the other a calico, are joyfully playing in a chaotic pile of discarded Christmas wrapping paper, ribbons, and bows. The ginger kitten is tangled in a long piece of shiny red and green paper, batting at a curled ribbon. The calico kitten is pouncing from inside a torn open cardboard gift box, surrounded by crumpled tissue paper. Torn pieces of colorful wrapping paper (gold foil, snowman patterns, stripes) and empty gift tags are scattered everywhere on a plush rug. The Christmas tree above them is glowing with warm fairy lights and decorated with traditional ornaments. The background is a cozy living room with a fireplace.
