The artists

Two practices under one roof

Gina Lin

Painting

Throughout her life, Gina has embraced creativity and reinvention, transforming her career several times as a business owner. Upon retiring, she turned to a dream that had been with her since childhood—becoming a professional painter. With a vibrant palette, an eye for detail, and an expressive style, Gina has developed her own distinctive artistic voice. Her work has been featured in several art shows, where she has enjoyed sharing her perspective and passion for painting with others. Today, Gina continues to create and explore, while encouraging others to follow their passions and embrace creativity at every stage of life.

Oil painting

After retiring from a fulfilling career in high technology in 2024, I rekindled my lifelong passion for art and joined Gina in formally studying oil painting at the Art Hub Academy in Saratoga, California. I soon realized that the creativity and passion I had known as a child had never truly left me. Encouraged by several commission requests, I decided to pursue my dream of becoming a professional artist. Through this journey, I hope not only to share my artwork, but also to inspire others—especially fellow retirees—to believe that it is never too late to pursue an unfulfilled dream and turn it into reality.
