Artist Hsin-Yao Tseng
Taipei, Taiwan, 1986
Around the age of ten, Hsin-Yao started painting in watercolors, as well as other mediums, out side of school. Theearly exposure instilled in him the foundation needed to excel at very earlyage. Hsin-Yao received his Bachelor of Fine Art degree in painting from Academy of Art University, San Francisco, in 2009 and his Master of Fine Art degree from the same university in 2012. He works ina range of genres: from lush evocations of San Francisco and other cities toexpressive portraits and finally to lustrous interiors in which multiple figures enact a story. He usually uses the visual richness and the muted tonesof color, and expressive brush-strokes to indicate his subjects. His dedicationand interest in the arts is apparent from over ten years of hard work andacademic studies. His many awards include Exceptional Merit Award at the 2012 International Portrait competition at Portrait Society of America, second place in the portrait/figure category of The Artist’sMagazine’s 2008 Annual Competition, a Certificate of Excellence in the 2010 Portrait Society of America International Portrait Competition, and finalist in the Art Renewal Center Salon for 2008-2009, 2009-2010, 2010-2011 and 2011-2012. He’s represented by the Legacy Gallery in Scottsdale, Arizona; Waterhouse Gallery, in Santa Barbara,California; the Garden Gallery in Half Moon Bay, California; and Howard/Mandevile Gallery in Kirkland, Washington.
