Born in Burnaby BC in 1973, Rick Leong obtained his BFA (with honors) from the University of Victoria and his MFA from Concordia University in 2007. A third generation Chinese-Canadian, Rick's large-scale landscapes are delicate explorations of Eastern and Western painting traditions with elements of tradition, culture, style, technique, fantasy and reality filling the painted plane.
His work is regularly exhibited across Canada and can be found in private and corporate collections, including the permanent collection of the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts. He currently lives in Montreal. |
