The First Snow

Jie (Jack) Zhou (b. 1965, Beijing) studied design at Beijing Normal University and was later inducted into The Beijing Society of Artists. His work was held in the permanent collection of The Fine Art Museum of Beijing. Now based in Canada, Zhou captures the rugged terrain of northern Ontario with a meticulous, near-pointillist technique. His landscapes distill shifting natural forms into dense fields of brushwork, reflecting a disciplined, studied response to the natural world. His work is held in private and corporate collections.
