Hong-Wen Cheng was born in Taipei. During childhood, he received the Bronze Medal Award of Taiwan-Japan Cultural Exchange after painting for one year. Since his parents opposed his painting, he always enjoyed writing Chinese calligraphy after studying or working as a personal hobby.

In order to write Chinese calligraphy very well, he places Chinese brushes, Chinese ink, Chinese papers, Chinese inkstones in his office, in his bedroom, and even in his computer bag in order to write it down immediately whenever he thinks of a good structural word. Furthermore, he often forgets to eat and sleep because when he is inspired to do some new calligraphy.
 

In addition, he always looks for related books of Chinese calligraphy at bookstores wherever he goes. Thus, he has enjoyed many ancient and modern works of Chinese calligraphy for years. 

Introduced by his elders, he had the chance to do Chinese calligraphy with Mr. Chih-Gang,Shi. By way of their discussion, Hong-Wen Cheng thus was inspired in concentrating on the status of Chinese brush and using the spirit of Qigong and Tai Chi for his creation and his Chinese calligraphy were displayed after he was 38 years old.

With a fusion of painting and meditation, his Chinese calligraphy is written through his spiritual intuition and has touched the hearts of people.
 

The work of which he is most proud, “Dragon”, shows a dragon- shape that is a dragon-word made with only one stroke. This Chinese calligraphy really amazed people.
