U Tin Win, born 1952 in Myanmar, is a graduate of
the State School of Fine Arts in Mandalay in
1970. Tin Win is highly regarded in his homeland
as a Master Artist. His painting techniques and
commitment to details have had a profound impact
on budding artists across Myanmar and South East
Asia. While he has an art portfolio comprising of
both abstract and realistic compositions, his
newer works focus mainly on photorealism artwork
of portraits of the different hill tribes of
Myanmar.
Tin Wins motivation for his latest paintings
stamps from his desire to share with the world
the diversity of the indigenous tribes of Myanmar
whose livelihood, cultural values and dignity
remain largely intact despite economic and social
modernisation. The fine details and strong
colours of the subjects in his paintings are
hallmarks of Tin Wins immaculate
craftsmanship. Applying a stunning degree of
detail and plenty of colors, he manages to turn
his objects into immaculate pieces of art that
seemingly come to live on canvas. Tin Wins art
work has been exhibited at numerous exhibitions
both within Myanmar and internationally, and can
be permanently viewed at Beikthano Art Gallery in
Yangon, Myanmar. Myanmar is an ethnically
diverse nation with 135 distinct ethnic groups
officially recognized by the Burmese government.
These are grouped into eight "major national
ethnic races. There are approximately one
hundred languages spoken in Burma. Burmese,
spoken by approximately 65 of the populace, is
the official language and the primary language of
instruction.

In 1993, Tin Win participated in the American
Contemporary Art Gallery Management Program as
an international visitor, and spent six weeks in
the United States visiting museums and galleries
where he met and discussed art with American
artists. This trip marked a turning point for the
artist. Tin Win returned home, opened Beik Thano
Gallery in Yangon and began to blend in his
works, "the oriental painting style" with what he
saw as "the modern painting style" in American
and Europe. By 2004, his paintings had been
shown at more than thirty exhibitions in Myanmar,
Thailand, Singapore, China, Hong Kong, Australia,
Japan, Korea, Isreal and the United States.
Today, Tin Win often with his wife makes several
trips a year to capture the beauty and grace of
the over 130 ethnic tribes who live on the plains
and highlands of Myanmar
