Yuan-Sheng Tsai (, born 1969), is a Taiwanese artist born in Taipei. Fascinated by painting since childhood, Tsai set off to study in Spain in 1996 after obtaining a fine art background in Taiwan. His overseas experience acted as a creative turning point because of the influence from well-known Spanish masterpieces. In both Taiwan and Spain, Tsai has been awarded several representative art prizes. During 1996 to 2006, he completed further fine art studies – a Master's of Arts and PhD in Spain.

Art characteristics

Much of Tsai's work is inspired by music. He utilizes numerous types of pigments and even uses his own hand-made pigments. The overlapping and intricate elements in his works are akin to the hundreds of storyboards for a film.
