As the son of local actors Edmund Chen and Xiang Yun, it’s no surprise that Chen Yixi would develop an interest in media and the arts from a young age. The 30-year old is an actor himself, but what not a lot of people might know, is that he’s also dabbled in the arts scene.

According to Chen, his interest in the visual arts started young, and now, he’s gone on to start his own business, The XI Atelier, also known as The Eleventh Atelier, which he launched earlier at the start of this month.

Prior to this, he sold his paintings and illustrations on Etsy. Now, curious art aficionados can get a closer look at his work, before making their purchase.

Yixi, who graduated from Nanyang Technological University, School of Art and Design Media in 2016, said in an interview with SingSaver that he’s been an actor for four years and selling his artwork for three.

At The XI Atelier, you can find a variety of pieces he’s done – from botanical illustrations to familiar sights in Singapore. An art piece from the Open Edition is priced at $28 while one from the Limited Edition goes for $78.

When it comes to style, he generally dabbles in illustrations and watercolour works. He would also practice his art whenever he’s overseas.

His latest heritage series include paintings of iconic landmarks

His latest heritage series include paintings of iconic landmarks such as the Katong Peranakan shophouses.

Personally, I’m a big fan of his work titled Building Bonham. The 620mm x 810mm artwork (pictured below) comes at a cool $850.

Being in the arts scene, Yixi knows of the effort needed to stay afloat in Singapore. Whether it’s having side hustles or strict rules when it comes to allocating monthly payments, artists can make a decent living according to him in the interview with SingSaver.

Also, he’s a bit of a neighbourhood kind of guy and is generally not big on pricey cafe food and $6 coffee.

In the Instagram announcement, Yixi also reminded his followers that they should keep their eyes peeled for more to come.
