The woman's gentle, thoughtful gaze rested on a tattered sketchbook.

這張洋溢著玫瑰粉紅色調的圖像，講述了一位名叫珍的年輕藝術家，在一個充滿靈感的繁華城市中尋找自己的聲音的故事。珍每天都會漫步於熙熙攘攘的街道上，她的眼睛捕捉到那些其他人可能忽視的生活片段：街頭小販的一聲爆笑、老朋友間的溫柔擁抱、早起者享受黎明的恬靜孤獨。

在一個清新的早晨，當她在一家裝飾有鮮艷橙色窗簾和抽象藝術品的小而充滿特色的咖啡館，品嚐她最愛的薄荷茶時，珍的注意力被對面坐著的一位老婦人吸引了。這位婦人用富有思考的溫柔目光凝視著一本破舊的素描本。她的手，雖然顯得風化卻依然穩定，隨著炭筆在頁面上跳躍，描繪出充滿情感和歷史的場景。

被這種安靜的激情和堅韌所感動，珍走向前，詢問是否可以共用一桌。當她們交談時，婦人透露自己曾是一位受到讚譽的畫家，現在已退休，但對藝術的愛依然未減。她談及自己青春時代的色彩、面臨的挑戰，以及藝術帶給她生活的喜悅。

受到啟發的珍回到自己的工作室，滿懷著一個新的項目想法。她決定創作一系列肖像，慶祝城市中未被注意到的藝術家。每一件作品都將捕捉他們的精神、他們的掙扎，以及他們對周圍美的悄然貢獻。

就這樣，珍開始了她最貼心的項目，將無名藝術家的故事與她日益增長的藝術才能交織在一起，所有這些都始於一個咖啡館的簡單早晨遭遇，那裡有橙色窗簾的守望和一位智慧、親切的陌生人。

The image, draped in hues of rosy pink, tells the story of Jane, a young artist discovering her voice in a vibrant city brimming with inspiration. Each day, Jane wanders through the bustling streets, her eyes capturing snippets of life that others might overlook: a burst of laughter from a street vendor, the tender embrace between old friends, the serene solitude of an early riser enjoying the dawn.

One crisp morning, while sipping her favorite peppermint tea at a small, eclectic cafe decorated with bright orange curtains and abstract art, Jane’s attention was drawn to an elderly woman sitting across from her. The woman's gentle, thoughtful gaze rested on a tattered sketchbook. Her hands, weathered yet steady, danced across the pages with a charcoal pencil, bringing to life scenes filled with emotion and history.

Moved by this quiet display of passion and resilience, Jane approached the woman, asking if she could share a table. As they talked, the woman revealed she was once a celebrated painter, now retired, yet her love for art remained undiminished. She spoke of the colors of her youth, of the challenges she faced, and the joy that art brought into her life.

Inspired, Jane returned to her studio, her heart alight with a new project idea. She decided to create a series of portraits, celebrating the unnoticed artists of the city. Each piece would capture their spirit, their struggles, and their quiet contributions to the beauty around them.

Thus began Jane’s most heartfelt project, weaving together the stories of unsung artists with her blossoming artistic talent, all ignited by a simple morning encounter in a cafe, under the watchful eyes of orange curtains and a wise, kind stranger.

My Name is Jane.
