NotesMichael Leu was born in Taipei on Taiwan in 1950. As early as age seven, Michael gained recognition as an artist after winning first place in the International Children's painting contest in Tokyo, Japan. Michael studied fine art and design in Taiwan in the late 60's and honed his printmaking technique at Otis Parsons in Los Angeles in the early 80's. Michael's images convey both a native innocence as well as worldly sophistication which together give the viewer a satisfying response. Whether it be his cats, women, or landscapes, Michael's extraordinary sense of color, his spontaneous yet well-executed placement of images, all invoke in us a sense of well-being, a smile, a chuckle, a delightful moment of enhanced comprehension of our surroundings.
