Ze Ze Lai
BIOGRAPHY
Ze Ze Lai was born in Hong Kong. A watercolor artist, she has had extensive experience in the art field and design industry. Throughout her career, she has held the role of a graphic designer, an art illustrator and a publisher. She was also involved in the medical and educational field in the past as a dental professional and an oral health educator.
As a watercolor artist, her expertise is in painting animals, with birds in particular. Through her distinctive manipulation of brushwork and water technique, she creates dream-like and mystical scenes, capable of bringing her viewers on a journey and voyage through their imagination. It is a story. To Ze Ze, birds are such dynamic living creatures, they could be in flocks; have times of solitude; be flying from branch to branch, or sitting still and being observant. In such, she aims to capture the essence and character of each little animal rather than a simple accuracy in anatomy and technical precision. It is through the creation of its atmosphere, the different feelings of happiness; sadness; or spontaneity is brought out and experienced with the viewer.
As an advocate for watercolor and the arts, Ze Ze joined the International Watercolor Society in 2015. Since then, she has put tremendous effort into the organization, a society with over 90 country branches around the world. Currently serving as the Vice President of this society, exhibitions, watercolor events like workshops and seminars are organized, promoting and encouraging art enthusiasts and professional artists alike to take part in the sharing and learning of this art form. In 2016, Ze Ze also started the publishing of the International Watercolor Bilingual Magazine, further expanding and bringing together the watercolor talents of the east and the west.
Her work has been widely exhibited all over the world in Asia, Europe and America and had won numerous awards.
