Sammy Ye
Graduated from the Hunan Academy of Fine Arts and currently based in Shenzhen, Sammy Ye is a senior oil painter and a respected member of the Dafen Artists Association.
Sammy is known for his distinctive fusion of traditional Chinese ink painting—particularly classic shan shui (mountain and water) landscapes—with contemporary artistic language. Through flowing brushwork, atmospheric layering, and minimalist composition, his work captures the spiritual essence of ancient Chinese landscapes while integrating modern forms, textures, and perspectives. The result is a visual style that is both timeless and forward-thinking, filled with balance, tranquility, and poetic depth.
In addition to landscape painting, Sammy specializes in textured abstract oil painting, ombre art, and crystal resin wall art. His ombre art showcases a masterful handling of color transitions, creating smooth, elegant gradients that evoke emotion and harmony. These works demonstrate his refined sense of color, composition, and surface depth.
His crystal resin artworks feature layered pigments beneath a high-gloss, glass-like resin finish, resulting in luminous, tactile pieces with striking visual depth and modern appeal. Whether working with texture, gradient, or glossy surfaces, Sammy brings a strong sense of energy and contemporary aesthetic to every piece.
His work has been featured in major exhibitions, including the Dafen International Oil Painting Biennale and the National Exhibition of Young and Middle-Aged Oil Painters, and has been widely recognized for its refined technique, East-meets-modern aesthetic, and deeply personal style.
