For the last 40 years artist Minna Chow has been living and working in Irvine, creating brush paintings in the traditional Chinese style, one of the oldest artistic traditions in the world. Chow was first introduced to the technique by her mother, eventually majoring in Chinese Language and Literature, allowing her to learn different calligraphy and Chinese brush painting styles.

In 1971, she came to the United States to expand her education, earning an accounting degree and working in the field for many years. Upon retirement Chow returned to Chinese brush painting, focusing her skills on producing images inspired by the natural world. Minna Chow: Traditional Chinese Brush Painting surveys the latest work by Chow, showcasing her love for nature and tradition.

The exhibit, parking, and opening reception are free and open to the public.
