About Monica Hsu

Monica Hsu, was born in Taiwan and immigrated to the US in 1988 after finishing Business School. Ms. Hsu’s love for art since her childhood helped her to pursue the eminent cause for preserving traditional Taiwanese Culture in her arbitrary and unique oil paintings. Over the years, her love for Taiwan is clearly illustrated in each of her works.

Conveying to both younger and older generations of Taiwanese, the historic importance of how their people lived, and what it means to be Taiwanese is one of Ms. Hsu's most determined goals in life. It is through this love and passion that carries her to be one of the most recognizable artists in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Aside from preserving Taiwanese culture through her artworks, Ms. Hsu indulges in creating vivid still life paintings of western culture. Using her traditional oil painting technique, she captures a multitude of different audiences in the United States.

Ms. Hsu has earned numerous awards including the First Place at the 2002 Los Gatos Museum Show and the Second Place at El Cerrito Art Show. In 2004, The American Artist Art Show selected 34 paintings out of 15000 entries, and Ms. Hsu's work was one of the 34. All those awards and honors clearly identify a popular acceptance of her artworks. Above all, Ms. Hsu is considered as an inspiration and encouragement for Asian American artists to make their mark in bridging the East and the west.
