Yun Wei
Yun Wei is a representational painter who uses traditional oil painting techniques in all of her work. She is deeply inspired by Dutch Golden Age still life masters such as Willem Kalf and Willem Claeszoon Heda—artists known for their rich textures, finely rendered objects, and quiet emotional resonance. She has received awards for excellence and best-in-show in various juried exhibitions. Her work has also been featured in respected art publications such as Western Art Collector, Art of the West, Southwest Art, and Fine Art Connoisseur.
Yun was born in TianJin, China. She studied oil painting at the TianJin Academy of Fine Arts, concentrating on traditional techniques. She then taught at the Fine Art High School of TianJin. She worked professionally with galleries in New Zealand and Australia from 2003 to 2008. Thereafter, she moved to the United States with her family.
