Yingzhao Liu
artwork
b. 1956
The art of Yingzhao Liu is exemplary of the photo-realist genre. His work fully captures the essence of still life, with strong contrasts in color and intense juxtapositions of light. His work has not only been auctioned off at the finest auction firms, including Christie's, Hong Kong, but has also been published in countless magazines. Yingzhao Liu, a former lecturer at Tianjina Academy of Fine Arts, has also published books teaching the highly skilled art of still life. Yingzhao Liu has currently moved to the United States from his native China and is living in the Boston area.
