Name/Title
50 Zhi Wen Luo - On Lok Gee CenterDescription
Born in Guangzhou, Canton province in 1930, Zhiwen came from a traditional Chinese family that emphasized the importance of doing one’s best and being humble and quiet. Zhiwen married and raised her children (one son and two daughters) while working full-time in a chemical factory. She and her husband came to the U.S. over twenty years ago to be with a daughter and three grandchildren who live in South San Francisco. Doing calligraphy is like practicing music, she says—it demands perfection and patience. She continues striving for perfection in her art, working at home outside of art class, and advises: “Be serious in anything you do.”
