Wei Wong was born in Borneo, Malaysia in 1968. His artistic interest was
apparent from
an early age, and he loved to pass his time drawing, sketching and painting.
In 1986, Wei and his family moved to Canada to experience life in a different
world.
Upon his arrival, Wei was immediately captivated by the mysterious and
mystical
Northern Lights, which have inspired a great deal of his work. He shares
the same passion as
his brother, Artist/Instructor Willie Wong, in using watercolor as a primary
medium for painting.
Embracing the beauty of the Canadian landscapes surrounding him, Wei
has recently
shifted his focus to photography. In this way, he has been able to capture
a variety of subjects,
from the grandeur of the Edmonton skyline to pebbles in a backyard brook.
He enjoys finding
beauty in details and objects that others may pass over. Wei began his
career in the picture framing industry
in 1987, and over the years, his works have been collected throughout
Alberta and overseas.
He is now the proud owner of his own Fine Art and Framing Business where
he is continuously
exploring new mediums through which to express his art.
