Simply Love: Meeting the Inspiring Apex Lin

During my recent art journey in Taiwan, I had the unexpected pleasure of meeting the incredible Apex Lin, the renowned artist behind the “Simply Love Taiwan” series. His work has long captured the hearts of many, including mine, with its heartfelt portrayal of Taiwan’s culture, traditions, and everyday beauty. Meeting him in person was an unforgettable experience that left me truly inspired.

A Passion That Speaks Through Art

Apex Lin’s passion for his homeland shines brightly through his artwork. He masterfully captures the soul of Taiwan, from vibrant street scenes to quiet, nostalgic corners of old neighborhoods. Each piece tells a story, not just about the place itself, but about the people, the memories, and the emotions intertwined with those places.

What moved me most was the way he spoke about his art. He doesn’t just paint Taiwan; he deeply connects with it, using his brush to preserve the island’s cultural heritage in a way that words never could.

More Than an Artist

Beyond his incredible skill, Apex Lin radiates warmth and humility. He spoke about the importance of artists embracing their roots, not just showcasing beauty, but telling stories that future generations can connect with. His belief that art is a bridge between the past, present, and future resonated deeply with me.

As an artist who also seeks to capture cultural moments, whether it’s through food, landscapes, or tradition, his words felt like a reminder of why I create art in the first place: to tell stories that matter.

Carrying the Inspiration Forward

Meeting Apex Lin was more than just an encounter with a great artist. It felt like a passing of creative energy, a push to continue creating with purpose and heart. His work stands as a reminder that art isn’t just about aesthetics. It’s about keeping the spirit of a place alive, one brushstroke at a time.

I left our meeting feeling motivated to pour even more love and authenticity into my own work, inspired to tell the untold stories that mean the most to me.
