About Wei-Ting Chuang

Wei-Ting Chuang is an artist specializing in traditional East Asian brush painting and calligraphy. Her artistic journey is deeply rooted in the philosophy expressed by Tang Dynasty artist Zhang Zao: “The artist, inspired by nature’s wonders, creatively transforms them through their imagination into a unique masterpiece, capturing the essence of the human spirit.” This belief resonates in Chuang’s work, as she draws inspiration from everyday life, transforming passing moments into expressive brushwork and thoughtful compositions. 

Since moving to California in 2017, her art has been profoundly influenced by the state’s stunning landscapes and diverse culture. Plein air painting plays a vital role in her creative process, allowing her to capture nature’s transient beauty with authenticity. She carefully selects mediums such as ink, watercolor, or mixed media. With a Master of Fine Arts from National Taiwan Normal University, Chuang has taught East Asian brush painting, watercolor, sketching, design, and calligraphy for over 20 years. She continues to share her passion for art through both online and in-person classes in the San Francisco Bay Area, including Pleasanton, Livermore, San Ramon, and Berkeley. Her work has been exhibited in solo shows in both Taiwan and the United States, and she has received numerous awards. Teaching is as rewarding to her as creating art, as her students continually inspire her and demonstrate the endless possibilities in artistic expression.
