Biography 

Stephen Chenge says "It's like a new discovery whenever I start a painting.  I always try to make each of the paintings have its own personality and soul by employing a variety of techniques."

Stephen Man-Fai Cheng, who lives in Vancouver, BC, is an award-winning artist and has been a professional artist for 30 years.  He graduated from the Hong Kong Academy of Fine Arts and studied under the direction of some of China's most famous painters and art professors.  Chen Shou-Soo, who was famous in Italy and China, was his favourite teacher. 

His instructors taught him to observe life and to try to capture the essence of the subject at hand.  His early paintings reflect these ideas in their treatment of still life and images from life.  While a teen, he enhanced his grasp of both figure and form by making thousands of impromptu sketches.  These studies accelerated his tremendous talent for the creation of art.  His past endeavours reflect the diversity of his talents in pursuits such as oil portraits, murals, set designs for both theatre and opera and also teaching painting.

His works have been in numerous exhibitions and his achievements have been widely reported by newspaper, television and magazine in Hong Kong and elsewhere.
