Kai Lun Qu

Kai Lun Qu is known for his alla prima paintings filled with expression and painterly strokes that evoke deep emotions. His unique blend of traditional style with a contemporary twist is a result of two extremes: a formal training in China’s most prestigious art academy, China Central Academy of Fine Arts and intense studies with renowned contemporary painters like Daniel Keys, Tim Rees and Michelle Dunaway in the United States.

Kai is currently creating oil paintings for Marvel, contributing to the award winning game, Marvel Snap. He was also on the faculty of the Portrait Society of America Conference as well as being a recipient of the Certificate of Excellence for their International competition. His work has been exhibited in museums and galleries throughout the US, and published by Poets Artist Magazine and Plein Air Magazine. In 2018, Kai was featured in Southwest Art Magazine's 21 under 31 Article, where he was one of 21 artists under the age of 31 being celebrated as rising art stars from across the West and around the country.

Kai is a Pro Team Artist for Trekell Art Supplies, Mentor for Sentient Academy, Member in The Circle of Gamblin Artists + Educators. He has also presented and exhibited at Lightbox Expo, San Diego Comic Con and Vision X Global Art Conference.
