KeKun Ouyang
”Tiger and Eagle’s War”
Oak Center Towers
"Follow your heart and your passion," says this gentle and humble native of China with a captivating smile, "and keep doing what you want to do." And that's what he is doing today in his art class.
Born in Canton in 1945, KeKun was a farmer who picked up part-time jobs on the side. He came to the U.S., where he lives with his wife, in 2004 and has five children and eleven grandchildren. Except for one daughter in Arizona, the rest of his family still lives in China, which he manages to visit yearly.
KeKun loves to travel and even without a car he's managed to get himself to local beaches, the forest, and Yellowstone National park---all of which feed his love of nature. His other passions include playing pool and slow walking.
KeKun hadn't picked up a paint brush since his days in elementary school. Now he creates and composes his own art and especially likes to paint animals from pictures, which he then puts into different backgrounds that he creates. He has purchased his own set of watercolors and loves to do his art in his room also.
