Yanrunan Tong (born on Dec 26th in Jiu Jiiang City Jiangxi province) is a Chinese painter. In 1996 he studied at China Academy of art.
He devoted the last 20 years to creation of oil painting portraits, hundreds of of celebrities have been painted during face to face painting sessions, which is a unique experience in this field of of contemporary art in the world.
His work differs from modern smartphone programmes that apply the perfect finish to our photos; instead, he steps away from external embellishments and seeks to lead the viewer back to essential, to the beginning of univers - an experience where one can sense the connection of earth and sky. This experience of the cosmos allows us to realign our inner experience to our true state, a state that is our original source of motivation. From this we can reflect upon our lives from the shelter of our heart.
