Xiong Zhichun is a traditional Chinese ink - watercolor artist who was influenced by his strong artistic family history. He started painting at the age of 12, and was tutored by his Mother Qi Liangzhi, and his uncle Qi Liangmo. Ink -Watercolor painting is a family tradition, and he is the third generation of painters. His grandfather is the well-known Chinese painting master Qi Baishi.

 

Zhichun’s painting style is influenced by his favorite subjects, such as shrimps,crabs, frogs, flowers and birds. Throughout his life, he has been practising new styles and subjects. In recent years, Zhichun started painting the scenery of nature and landscapes.

 

Today, Zhichun is painting and teaching since he wants to pass on the traditional Chinese ink - watercolor painting style to a new generation of painters.
