He was born in Anqing, Anhui in October 1978, and graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts of Hangzhou Normal University in 2008 with a master's degree in fine arts, majoring in the research of modern and contemporary figurative oil paintings.


Fan Xuexian's works usually take contemporary urban girls as the subject matter, and through delicate brushstrokes and colors, he conveys a tranquil and aesthetic atmosphere, as well as a unique sense of simplicity and freshness. He is particularly good at expressing the purity, tranquility, loneliness and tranquility of women. His works not only pursue realism, but also hope to express a kind of emotion and reality through oil painting.


Fan Xuexian's painting style tends to be aesthetic and harmonious. His works have a distinct contemporary flavor. At the same time, they also inherit the tradition of sinicizing realistic oil paintings, integrating Western painting forms with traditional Chinese aesthetic orientations.

His works are also widely collected by museums, galleries and other institutions as well as private collectors.


Fan Xuexian's artistic creation is not only a pursuit of beauty, but also an expression of inner emotions and a profound reflection of real life. He likes to express the loneliness of being isolated and alienated from the outside world, as well as characters immersed in their own world. Through his works, the audience can feel a quiet and soothing rhythm that can control people's emotions and give people a beautiful enjoyment and emotional resonance.


The lonely beauty of being away from the outside world

Fan Xuexian

Today's urban life appears to be noisy, flashy, lively and joyful, and most people hope to be part of it without being abandoned or left out. However, behind the collective revelry in the splendor of the material world, irresistible loneliness, loss and desolation often permeate the heart.

I like to express this feeling of loneliness that is isolated and alienated from the outside world, a quiet picture, a person, a solitary person retreating from the hustle and bustle of the world, returning to a quiet and comfortable corner.

The characters in my works are mostly immersed in their own world, self-pitying, narcissistic, leisurely, elegant and slightly melancholic. I am obsessed with this lonely emotion, and conveying this emotion and meaning through my works can express my true inner heart.
