Mingyue Wang, born in Beijing in 1962, is a neoclassical oil painter renowned for his depictions of old-fashioned ladies. He is the original creator of the large oil painting The Jurist under the Bodhi Tree and a founding figure of Surrealism. Wang served as the chief painter for former British Prime Minister Edward Heath and holds memberships in prestigious art organizations such as the American Portrait Artists Association. He is also the vice-chairman of both the International Painting and Calligraphy Alliance and the Thailand-China Culture and Art Exchange Association.
Wang graduated from the Central Academy of Fine Arts, where he completed an advanced research class in oil painting. His Dream Flower Soul series, which features women in ancient costumes, is among his most well-known works. Though he is primarily a figurative portrait painter, his approach transcends traditional portraiture. Wang uses the portrait as a tool to explore the pure essence of humanity and the world. His works often employ metaphor and symbolism, expressing deeper philosophical thoughts on life. While the subjects in his paintings appear as individuals, they represent more universal ideas, making them symbolic rather than specific persons.
