Obituary: Portrait artist Chen Yifei dies at 59

[Marcus Lim]

HI Schubert,
So it seems, as his name implies...Yi, with reference to his gallivanting ways with models, and Fei also referring to his destiny to soar to great heights in his career. You're right that he has worked too hard; without it, he wouldn't have fei-ed (soared)

I wonder if anyone in the US will do a memorial service for him? He has quite an extensive network there after all...

Hi Marcus:
See his pictures:

Yi means: 1. easy , leisure; 2. flee, escape; 3. lost ; 4. excel. those words contain some of his secrets of great success.

Hi Schubert,
Thanks for letting learn more about him. Unfortunately the link didn't work; but i'm glad he's being remembered and sent off in a grander manner.
