Lucas (Z.Q.) Lou representational artist of landscape and nature.  In 1976, I began private lessons with the famous artist, Ho You Zhie. I finished advertising college lessons in 1980 and went on to become a creative designer for the Shanghai Yan Zhom Arts and Crafts Company. I then became Designer of the Shanghai Advertisement Association in 1985.
After immigrating to Canada in 1988, I was fascinated by Canada’s great natural landscapes and sceneries.  All of these wonderful sights excite my inspiration and artistry.

I am a member of the Mississauga Arts Council and Society. I have achieved many prizes and awards for my work.  My consummate skills using oil and pastels have enabled my works to encompass visual and verbal images. I often exhibit my work in Ontario.

I also provide classes in a professional atmosphere for anyone that wants to learn the art of oil and pastel painting.
