Crystal Liu


Crystal Liu describes herself as a "Chinese painter born in Canada." She got her BFA in 2003, so I guess she was born around 1982. Above, a triptych titled, "the possibilities...." and one of the panels, 2016

These days she lives in San Francisco but she also exhibits in Hong Kong. At Night, 2015.



Her paintings are grouped into series that each have a similar color scheme, and various images repeat across the whole series. Here are three from a series called "I always meant to love you," 2017. That's also the title of the one in the middle; at top is Felt Like Home and at the bottom is My Heart Dropped II.

Under the Ground, 2016, from the series "underground."

The Moon, 2014.

Making Waves, 2015.
