Mr. Xing Zhen Li is a renowned Chinese artist who acquired his art foundation at the College of Art & Design, Beijing University of Technology. His early years as a professional artist was with the Chinese Navy where he produced many oil paintings and participated in nation wide art exhibits. In the late 70s, Mr. Xing was accepted into the China Academy of Art for his postgraduate degree where he majored in oil painting and also learned traditional Chinese painting. Mr. Xing now focuses on style of colour, and Ink and Wash (a traditional painting style developed during the Song and Yuan dynasties). Mr. Xing is a believer of combining Western art and Chinese traditional art to take advantage of the uniqueness and similarities between the two art styles. His personal art style reflects this fusion of art styles but he also does not forget the importance observation and real life experiences play in creating meaningful and emotional art paintings.
