About the Item
Artist Comments
An observant black and white cat with eyes widely alert props itself on the edge of a sofa. Artist Shuxing Fan paints the charming feline companion of his son in modern realism. He catches the moment as it jumps onto the couch to watch a bird outside the window. His strokes present a sensation of the subject's movement and anticipation.
About the Artist
Artist Shuxing Fan paints radiant classical scenes influenced by his formal college art training in the early 1970s. "My college study in theatrical set design was rigorously fine art oriented and heavily influenced by European and Russian educated mentors," says Shuxing. After finishing a BFA in Scene Design in Beijing, he moved to America and received his MFA from Boston University. With a career of over 35 years as a theatre set designer and scenic artist, his work has been seen on Broadway, on national TV, and at international conglomerates' events. Upon retirement, Shuxing took on the challenge to focus on painting again to fulfill his childhood dream. Today, he works from his basement studio which he finds to be a quiet, convenient, and creative working space. When he's not painting, he experiments with game engines to build virtual environments.
