Philip K K Chan, a native of Toisan, Guangdong Province, China, he was educated in Hong Kong. While there, he began to study Chinese brush painting in the 60s under Master Chiu Sai Kwong (Linfunglau Art Studio). He graduated from the University of Calgary in Canada in the 70s. While abroad, he took up western painting, and this enhanced his style and approach towards art. His paintings of flowers, birds, insects, animals and landscape capture the essence of the Lingnan School. Yet his works flow fluidly between the East (Ink) and the West (Colors/ Splash). Their compositions are simple but unique. His brushstrokes are elegant yet free spirited. His birds and animals are realistic but graceful.

Mr. Chan has had multiple exhibitions in Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, mainland China, Canada, UK and the United States. He is the president of Oriental Art Association USA, and Yi Yan Society. He has been helping to promote art events with his wide expert knowledge in the art world.
