Chizuru Morii Kaplan Paintings
Chizuru Morii Kaplan is a painter who was born in Japan. For two and a half decades, after studying architecture and interior design in Tokyo, Chizuru worked as a freelance architectural renderer in Tokyo, Chicago and New York for renowned architects including I.M. Pei, whose iconic structures dazzled the world. In 2007, Chizuru Morii Kaplan studied watercolor with Paul Ching-Bor at the Art Students League of New York and she subsequently won a fellowship from the League for study at the Paris American Academy.
Kaplan has won numerous awards and her paintings have been exhibited in New York City at the National Arts Club Gallery, the Salmagundi Club, the Bertrand Delacroix Gallery as well as the Springfield Art Museum in Missouri. She is represented by galleries in New York and most recently, Windsor Fine Art in New Orleans. Her work has been repeatedly featured in SPLASH: The Best of Watercolor and in The Artist's Magazine. In the October 2014 issue of Watercolor Artist Magazine, the critic Sarah A. Stricken wrote that “Painting from dark to light with a nary of hard edge in sight, Chizuru Morii Kaplan breaks with tradition to bring out the best qualities of watercolor in her surprisingly detailed architectural paintings.”
Kaplan now resides in New York City.
