By eighteen, his paintings from group shows were purchased by collectors from Europe & The United States. In 1983 he went to Boston and double-majored in painting & design in Massachusetts College of Art where he earned his Bachelor Degree with honor standing.

He & his wife, also an artist, moved to Canada in 1989 & started their family in Toronto area. The combination of a solid skill training in China & an open-minded education in The United States, nurtured by the tranquility of Canada, gives his art the qualities that are unique, refreshing, & though seemingly simple & direct, very sophisticated Collectors love the positive energy his work makes them feel. Wang's paintings are collected enthusiastically by numerous corporations, institutions & private art collectors from worldwide.
