About Ling Strube

I was born and raised in China. From a very young age, I developed a deep passion for art, particularly painting. I received formal training at an art school for three years and graduated in China.

I later relocated to Australia, where I initially worked as a street portrait artist. Subsequently, I secured a position as an illustrator with Ross Perrett Golf Course Companies. After several years, I enrolled at the Eastern College of TAFE in Melbourne, completing a two-year Associate Diploma of Arts program that significantly broadened my artistic knowledge. Following my studies, I worked as a Graphic Designer at Trellian Pty. Ltd. in Melbourne. In 2000, I permanently relocated to Germany.

Over the past two decades, my primary focus has been painting and drawing. I have held solo exhibitions and participated in group exhibitions at local venues, attracting the interest of numerous clients. My work is strongly influenced by 19th-century masters such as Claude Monet, William-Adolphe Bouguereau, and Nicolai Fechin. I am also inspired by contemporary artists including Richard Schmid, David Leffel, and Sherrie McGraw.
