This Washington D.C. artist, Daniel Nie, is a native of Shanghai, China. He came to the USA 23 years ago after accepting a full scholarship to study art. He has a B.A.in Art from Wake Forest University in North Carolina and an M.A./M.F.A. from The American University in Washington DC. Nie taught six years of art courses at various colleges. During that period he developed his own art form that he calls "Yi-mpression." The Artist applies the principles of French impressionism with Chinese Xieyi painting (pronounced shay-e), which means to express the inner feeling of the artist. Creating this unique style allows him to interpret everyday objects through the celebration of color, light, texture, and unreserved mixture of the East and the West.
