Wei-Chun Hsu, a Zhongli resident, has a love for unsweetened, ice-free tea and a deep passion for the ocean. A lifelong admirer of zoos and drawing, he has enjoyed sketching animals since childhood. Typically lively and talkative, he becomes focused and quiet when in “drawing mode.” Hsu graduated from the Graduate Institute of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at National Taiwan University. While continuing his research, he explored various artistic media, including watercolor, oil painting, and ink painting, under the guidance of mentors. His artwork often centers on his favorite subject—marine creatures—with the aim of using art to invite others into the fascinating world of the ocean.
