Guest Artist August 20 – October 7, 2024
​I was born in Fushun, a small northeastern Chinese city once famous for coal. My brother became the first artist in our family, and may have planted the seed of my love for art since an early age. After the end of the Cultural Revolution, I was able to attend Luxun College of Art, a school with nation-wide renown. After graduation, I moved to the beautiful seaside city of Dalian. During my time in Dalian, I taught art at two universities, published a personal art book, and took part in a variety of art exhibitions. Some of my work were chosen for National-level exhibitions, and were honored with awards. I attracted the interest of art collectors, and some of my work are in private collections.
After moving to the US as an Alien of Extraordinary Ability, I began to fall in love with oil painting, and decided to focus on it. Soon after, I became accepted and encouraged by my local art community. Several of my paintings have been featured in local art shows, some of them winning awards.
My life has been rich in experiences and filled with many memorable moments of ups and downs. Even in the most difficult moments, art has been my most loyal companion. I feel a lot of joy when creating art, and hope to continue enjoying and sharing such joy with others.
