JIAN-YI LIU
Chinese

Jian-Ye Liu was born in Fujian, China in 1972. He graduated from Xu Beihong Art Institute in Bejing in 1997 and quickly emerged himself in his career as a serious artist.

His first show was a group exhibition in Singapore in 1998, followed quickly by a prestigious annual exhibition in China in 1999. His work was accepted and received unprecedented acclaim at an important group show at the Y.S. Trade Center in Bejing in 2000.

On the heels of his success at the Bejing Trade Center exhibit, he traveled to Giverney, Brittany and Provence, France to do a series of sketches for his oil paintings. The result of his travels and hard work is his current breath of work.

Liu's paintings of gardens and ponds are ethereal, soft and dreamy. He is a genius at blending colors and creating scenes with a natural, yet mysterious, haunting beauty.

His work was shown first at the China Artexpo in 2001 and was discovered here in the United States at the International Artexpo in New York in 2002. This emerging young talent already has an impressive list of collectors in Singapore, Japan, Korea and the United States, and he promises to be an important addition on the art scene.
