Lena Liu is a painter of unparalleled
popularity in today's collectibles market —
art lovers the world over enjoy the
universal yet personal character of her
paintings. Beautiful birds, tranquil
landscapes, and breathtaking floral and
musical still lifes are among her collectors'
favorites.
Lena had her first painting lessons as a
child in Taiwan under the guidance of
renowned painters: Professors Sun Chia-
Chin and Huang Chun-Pi. She came to the
United States in 1972 to study architecture
at the State University of Buffalo and
later did graduate work at the School of
Architecture at U.C.L.A. However, her true
passion never left her, and in 1977, she
began to paint full-time.
Today, avid collectors enjoy her artwork
across various media, including limited-
edition prints, porcelain collector's plates,
ornaments, figurines, music boxes, cards,
sculptures, tapestries, bookmarks, and
calendars. Lena has achieved recognition
at national shows and exhibits. She was
honored by the Collector's Information
Bureau (CIB) as Best Plate Artist of the
Year and as Collector's Choice Artist of the
Year. She was named the Canadian Artist
of the Year at the Canadian Collectible of
the Year Awards. Lena was also an
inaugural inductee into the prestigious
Bradford Exchange Plate Artist Hall of
Fame.
Lena Liu and her husband Bill live in
Maryland, in the home she designed to
accomodate their joint loves of art, music,
and nature. As often as she is able, Lena
spends time in her garden where she
attains inspiration for many of her
paintings. She also loves to watch the birds
that live around her home and studio.
Although Lena appreciates the loveliness of
all birds, she admits to liking chickadees the
most, "maybe because they remind me of
small children, with their round little
bodies and cute expressions."
"I strive to create a sense of romance,
poetry, and music in my painting. Emotion,
love, and nature will never change, and I
try to capture that in my art. I let what
touches my heart pass through my fingers.
I hope you and I can keep sharing this love
of nature's beauty, and continue to delight
in the splendor of the world that surrounds
us."-- Lena Liu |
