Xiang Zhang (pronounced Shong Zang) - April 14th

   Born in the year of the Horse, Xiang Zhang grew up in China.
   After graduating from The Central Academy of Drama in Beijing,
   he received his Masters Degree in Fine Art from Tulane
   University in New Orleans.  While at Tulane, he developed his
   special style of portraiture work and increasingly cowboy art.

   Xiang currently lives on a ranch in Sherman, Texas where he
   has immersed himself in the local ranching lifestyle.  His work
   reflects the symbiotic relationship between the cowboy and his
   horse.  Using scintillating colors and bravura brushwork to
   capture the drama of ranching life, his definitive style has
   catapulted him to new heights in the art world.

   Xiang's paintings hang in private and corporate collections in
   the United States, Canada, Europe and China, and he has been
   featured in several art magazines, including Southwest Art
   Magazine and Art of the West.  His work can also be seen on his
   website: www.xiangzhangart.com
