Lun Tse

Lun Tse and his twin brother were born in Hong Kong, China on February 19, 1964. The name Lun in Chinese means “dragon”. The Tse family emigrated from China to San Francisco in 1967. After being abandoned by their father, the Tse family moved to Salinas, California. In the much quieter small town of Salinas, Lun’s twin began writing a great deal which inspired Lun’s own creative development. Lun would draw illustrations to accompany stories written by his twin. In high school, art classes were Lun’s focus and he graduated with an art scholarship. Within a few years after college, he was working full-time as an artist.

His colorful paintings have consistently had richness and depth with remarkable use of light. Lun’s paintings show a connection to not only nature but also to the spirit and energy of nature. His use of neutral colors collides with the brilliantly vivid colors in his pictures to create excitement and a true sense of life. Lun’s work is shown and sold at major art exhibitions and galleries throughout the United States and internationally.
