Ms. Yeh Ming-zhu (葉明珠) is a native of Fujian Province's Fuqing City in Mainland China. She operates a beauty studio (葉子美容坊) in Luodong City and moved to Taiwan for love. She began her creative career after meeting Mr. Liu Bo-yi (劉博儀), a sculptor, by accident. In 2017, Yeh committed herself to the study of precise painting and ink painting, and she frequently goes to and from Taipei to do so. Zhi-wei, (芷葦) Ms. Yeh's daughter, was motivated by her mother and started learning how to create art. Ms. Yeh was proud that Zhi-wei joined the contest (2023文創手作營) organized by the school in February of this year to win the finest works.
