Liu Yong (painter)

[citation needed] In 1978, Liu represented China Television in the U.S. and became the artist-in-residence at the Danville Museum of Fine Arts and History in Virginia.

Concurrently, he founded Shui Yun Zhai Cultural Enterprises in Taipei, which he continues to manage as a writer and artist.

[citation needed] Liu was apprenticed to Huang Jun-Bi and Lin Yushan, artists known for landscape, bird, and flower paintings.

His foundation, combined with education in Western painting from studying in the U.S., sketching technique, and background in literature, led to the development of his style.
