Cunrong Lang
“Snow in December”
Oak Center Towers
Cunrong was born in Northeast China in 1935. When she was three years old she traveled with her family to Chung Qung in Sichuan Province, a safer place to live during the war years, where she remained until she was 18. Cunrong says she’s grateful that when she was young she was able to attend good schools that instilled in her a love of learning and gave her a good education. She graduated from Sichuan Medical College when she was 24 and made her career as a Physiology professor at LuZhou Medical College where she taught for 50 years. She moved to Minnesota in 2006 and then to Oakland in 2012 so she could be close to her daughter.
Cunrong has two children, a son and daughter, and four grandchildren of whom she is very proud. She describes herself as a happy, spontaneous person with many interests and with a love of learning. She enjoys singing, drawing, crocheting, knitting and walking in nature. She joined the art class at Oak Center Towers last year. It was her first experience with creating art and she was curious to find out if she could draw. She comes from a talented family — both of her parents could draw very well and her daughter is a talented poet. She fell in love with drawing and has been creating art ever since. She likes to focus on flowers and landscapes in her art.
