Artist Statement
"The first morning by the river with Kevin and Wanda Mcpherson, Jason Situ and Andy Evansen. We always gathered a crowd wherever we would go as we were a rarity in Kaiping. Among the onlookers were Mian Situ’s brother, an artist from Canada, who is a cousin to the Situs. The Situ family Museum is across the street from where we were painting."

China's Crown Jewel; Recent Paintings by American Artists, American Legacy Fine Arts, June 21 – July 28, 2019
Exhibition Description
The rapid transformation of Southern China’s Guangzhou province from an agricultural region into a global leader for international trade has truly created a feast for the eyes, juxtaposing charming Chinese houseboats floating along the Pearl River Delta against a backdrop of imposing skyscrapers. The expeditious changes that have occurred since the 1980s have caught, in particular, the attention of artists who once lived in the region – some while training at the prestigious Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts. They now find themselves fondly reminiscing about the pristine countryside that they used to explore. In recent years, these Chinese artists, who now call California home, have traveled back to their native land to capture in artwork glimpses of both the past and the continually evolving present of this sprawling port city that has embraced Western influences.
Accompanying the Chinese-American artists on these plein air painting expeditions have been their American counterparts, many of whom had never visited China – let alone painted in the world’s most populous country. This exhibition features more than 40 paintings that resulted from these trips, revealing a range of fascinating perspectives on life in China’s third largest city.

"Most villages were mostly abandoned, city life was the preference. The few left in the village were very graceful and kind. As I was painting a small crowd gathered to watch. It began to rain. I was kept dry by an umbrella held over me provided by the local people.
