About WLart and Artist Liang Wei

"I believe fine art should be enjoyed by all people who love art. Fine art should also be affordably priced."

      Liang Wei

Liang Wei pursued his career as an artist for 30 years before establishing WL Art in 2003.

"Through WL Art, I want to create a service that can raise awareness and promote the global understanding of fine art. I believe fine art should be
enjoyed by all people. My goal is to make fine art affordably priced."

Using his professional experience and advanced internet technology, Liang Wei hopes to share his passion for art with people who love art around the
world. His art can now be commisioned and collected through the Web site www.WLart.com.

Liang Wei uses his talent and skills in landscape painting and portrait painting to give clients an opportunity to work directly with the artist and
commision a work of art created exclusively for them.

Artist Statement

I rely on my travels which provide me with a great diversity of different methods for new pictorial subjects in my artwork. I like collecting the segments and moments in nature, which I can see make me sensitive and excited about what is in real life. Those unforgotten sources help me think and develop a great passion for creating new versions of the world on canvas.

Country landscapes are the major themes and wandering through the Pacific Northwest is well presented in my paintings. My paintings of Eastern Washington offer long shadows, moody and thoughtful days and brilliant skies. It is representative of the essence of Eastern Washington’s being, as well as Northwest painting, which I call American landscape painting.

Sensitivity is my natural gift. My job is to create a better way to assemble what I have collected and transcribe it onto pure canvas using dots, lines, shapes and colors that never stop.
