Meet Your Instructor, Chien Chung-Wei (AWS, D.F.)

Chien is the first artist in Taiwan to become a Signature Member of the American Watercolor Society and the National Watercolor Society. He has also achieved the prestigious position of Dolphin Fellow with the AWS.

Artists and collectors say the watercolor works of Chien appear to embrace the spirit and character of Western watercolor masters over the last two centuries.

You can see the spirits of such great watercolor masters as Thomas Girtin, John Sell Cotman, J.M.W. Turner, Winslow Homer, John Singer Sargent, and Edward Seago in his works.

He has also broken the boundary between watercolors and oil paints. He created a series of works using watercolors and gouache that look like Romantic oil paintings of the 19th century.

Those works totally changed the conventional impression of watercolors.

His colors are expressive and classic, laid down with masterful brushstrokes that endow every character with a rich fullness.

He creates the beauty and intrigue of form even with ordinary subjects — and that’s the enchantment of his watercolors.
