Shinhuey Ho
Trinidad & Tobago
Shinhuey Ho’s work hangs in corporate and private collections in the
U.S., Trinidad & Tobago, Germany, Australia, Scotland and Taiwan.
She is known for her striking portrait paintings, including a
commissioned portrait of the former Prime Minister of Trinidad &
Tobago, Kamla Persad-Bissessar. Shinhuey also enjoys painting
outdoors on location. She was invited to Plein Air Curacao in 2015
and taught a painting workshop during the international plein air
event.
Shinhuey’s current work is inspired by her life in the sunny
Caribbean islands of Trinidad & Tobago. In addition to painting the
land and sea under the brilliant tropical sun, she also loves to capture
the country’s beautiful people from diverse ethnic and cultural
heritage.
Shinhuey was born and raised in Taiwan. She holds an MBA degree
from Purdue University in Indiana, USA. Having lived in the U.S.
for nine years and now residing in Trinidad, she considers herself a
citizen of the world. Shinhuey is a member of the Portrait Society of
America and the Art Society of Trinidad & Tobago. When she is not
painting, she enjoys spending time with her husband, two children,
their dog Dash and cat Angie.
