A true master of Chinese brushwork, Lou Dahua (b.1948) studied art at the Beijing and Shanghai Universities. He has been engaged in the meticulous brushwork of birds and flowers for several decades and his works form a distinct and vivid art style suiting both refined and popular tastes. His paintings are a rare blend of traditional Chinese and Western painting methods and have been exhibited in China, Japan, Taiwan and other Asian countries, Europe and North America. Each Lou Dahua painting is a one-of-a-kind hand painted original.
