About the ArtistJeffrey Lou has been a professional Chinese ink brush painter and watercolorist for over 30 years. Growing up in rural China was an enormous influence in Jeffrey becoming an artist. His sources of inspiration were the natural surroundings of his hometown, especially the creeks that flowed throughout the scenic village in southeast China . Jeffrey demonstrated his artistic talents in early childhood. Studying with several well-known masters in China , he mastered the intricate techniques of Chinese ink painting and traditional seal carving.

As a full time professional artist, Jeffrey embarked on a journey to combine traditional Chinese brush painting and Western wet-on-wet techniques into his uniquely established color-ink artwork.

Since 1980, Jeffrey's artwork has appeared in numerous publications and exhibited nationally in various juried events and galleries in China . He moved to the United States in the early 1990's, where again, his artwork has been well received in exhibitions in Reno , San Francisco , and New York City .
