Chinese-born Canadian painter Xiao Song Jiang was born in 1955, in Wuhan, China. In 1978 he studied fine arts at the China Academy of Art, formerly the Zhejiang Art Academy, then began lecturing watercolor at the City of Wuhan Construction College. Four years after, Song was selected to further develop his skill at the provincial Hubei Art Academy.

In 1988, Song immigrated to Canada. While there, he travelled widely from coast to coast and gained some 20 years of experience forming his unique style of a mixture of brush and knife. More on Song Jiang
