        My mom and her other siblings were recently going through
        my grandpa's personal effects, sorting it all out. I was there
        on the side, helping out and sifting through his things with
        interest. There were a few of his art supplies there, like some
        brushes and watercolors, and many of his stone stamps, and
        many other random items. I never knew much about his history,
        to me he was just my grandpa who happened to be able to
        paint. But recently, on several occasions, I talked with my
        mom about him and she told me many stories of their life
        long before I was around.

        I recently searched the internet through a few of the more
        popular search engines for Pang Tseng Ying, to see what
        information I could find out in the digital world. The results
        that it returned were to a few sites that are selling a handful
        of miscellaneous prints of his, and maybe a blip about where
        and when he was born, but there was very little else. There
        was no place where you could see a more comprehensive
        collection of his work, or even find information about the
        person. I even tried various library databases for articles but
        even many of those only have archives starting from the mid-
        eighties. So I created this site straight from the information
        that my family has collected, which took a bit of work since






        not much of it is organized. In addition, maybe half of the
        tidbits we have collected is written in chinese, and reading
        chinese is a skill that I seemed to have misplaced.

        Hopefully, as time permits, I will be able to add these
        information to this site. In the meantime, this site will provide
        a start for anyone interested in my grandfather's work. Now
        there is a home on the internet for things relating to my
        grandpa Pang Tseng Ying.
 
        Thanks for visiting,
