Caroline R. Young











      The art of Caroline R. Young focuses on interpreting the magic of the ancient China and Japan. She was born in Hong Kong and moved to Hawaii to attend the University, majoring in French. She met Lam Oi Char, a powerful mentor who inspired her to change her major to art and then to become a professional.
      In the late 1980’s inspired by the feature film “The Last Emperor”, Ms. Young renewed her interest in her Chinese heritage and decided to focus on a series of portraits of Chinese historical and legendary subjects. She said “I paint as much for the general public of all races as for the many Chinese-Americans who have lost a part of their cultural identity through assimilation into mainstream American culture.”  In, Artodyssey
