Fan Lu (born 1990) is a multidisciplinary, cross-cultural artist and educator from Shanghai, currently living in California. Her academic and life experiences span China, Australia, the UK, Italy, and the United States. She earned a BA in Advertising from Shanghai Normal University in 2013, where she received the Shanghai Outstanding Graduate award, a prestigious honor for students with exceptional academic, leadership, and impactful contributions to community service. She holds an MSc in Management and Organizational Innovation (with Merit) from Queen Mary University of London in 2014 and an MA in Fine Art (with an emphasis in Drawing and Painting) from the Academy of Art University in San Francisco in 2019. 

Since 2016, Fan's work has been exhibited in group and solo shows in Florence and several U.S. cities, including San Francisco, Palo Alto, and Alameda. Her artistic practice explores themes such as nature, travel memories, music, faith, education, literature, and daily life, using a wide range of traditional and digital media. She designs and teaches bilingual art courses for children and adults, both online and in person, and curates community events that integrate her Christian faith. Fan's early career in museum education, international education, and media shapes her Interdisciplinary approach to art and teaching. 

Together with her husband, she co-leads a family Music Art Ministry that serves the Spiritual communities both locally and globally. Since 2018, they have homeschooled their son through a faith-based, arts- and science-integrated model focused on nurturing creativity, spiritual growth, and lifelong learning. Influenced by early life challenges and cross-cultural experiences, her work embodies gratitude, resilience, healing, and quiet strength, aiming to bridge cultures, express faith, and inspire joy.
