Hsin-Yao\u0027s technique in oil is brilliant and sure; he paints in a Romantic, expressive manner that honors the Western tradition while signaling an edgy, contemporary complexity. Hsin-Yao has a curiosity and energy that propel him toward experimentation and innovation. Accordingly, he works in a range of genres, from lush evocations of San Francisco and other cities, to expressive portraits and finally to lustrous interiors in which multiple figures enact a story. While his technical mastery is superb it is never arid or facile. Hsin-Yao\u0027s prose testifies to the fact that he is ambitious in the best sense; he is eager to push his art beyond what\u0027s immediate and popular toward the timeless and real. His dedication and interest in the arts is apparent from over ten years of hard work and academic studies.\u003Cbr /\u003E\u003Cbr /\u003E Hsin-Yao has exhibited his artworks in numerous solo and group shows across the United States.
