From discerning connoisseurs, fluency in strokes is what makes him stand out. His works are ornamental, sophisticated and well-balanced, popular amongst collectors through-out China.










The Artist, Chai Rui (pen name Ya Mei), was born in Beijing, China in 1953. He has been an art teacher, a member of the National Chinese Artists Association of China.

Yi Ren  Chinese Painter, 1840-1896

Rèn Yí (任頤, 1840-1896), also known as Ren Bonian, was a painter and son of a rice merchant who supplemented his income by doing portraits. He was born in Zhejiang, but after the death of his father in 1855 he lived in Shanghai. This move placed him in a more urban world that was exposed to Western thinking. In Shanghai he became a member of the Shanghai School which fused popular and traditional styles. He is also sometimes referred to as one of the "Four Rens."
He was noted for his bold brushstrokes and use of color. In his earlier career the Song Dynasty painters influenced him, but later on he favored a freer style influenced by the works of Zhu Da.










Xin Zhen
Of the Haka miniority and he came from the North East of the Guangdong Province in China.  The painter specialised in brush paintings.
