Chen Yingsheng was born at No. 78, Penglai Town, Taipei City, during the Japanese colonial period. His father, Mr. Chen Zhiqing, was a Chinese medicine doctor, poet, and industrialist, and his mother was Ms. Zhang Yuchou.
He graduated from Dadaocheng Public School in 1913 and entered the Normal Department of the Taiwan Governor-General's Office National Language School in 1914. He was taught by Mr Ishikawa Kinichiro, who was also teaching at the school at the time and began to learn Western watercolour painting. He also began to follow in his teacher's footsteps and travel sketching, promote art, and compose music.
After graduating in 1918, he taught at Dadaocheng Second Public School (Nissin Public School). During this period, he once mentored Mr. Guo Xuehu, who was a third-year student at the time. In 1921, when he taught at Dadaocheng Girls' Public School, he also mentored Ms. Xu Yuyan . When he taught at Penglai Public School from 1922 to 1936, he continued to encourage and prepare students to paint and to increase their interest in painting. During this period, he taught attentively at school and promoted community cultural activities, winning many awards for outstanding contributions. In 1922, he published the nursery rhyme "Niu Ah Niu Ah", which is still popular today. On January 31 of the same year, Mr. Chen Yingsheng married Ms. Su Xiao, the third daughter of Mr. Su Liangdeng, a tea merchant. On January 6, 1923, his eldest daughter, Ms. Chen Biyun, was born. On December 8, 1927, his third son, Mr. Chen Xuebao, was born (the household registration office recorded him as "the third son"). When he became an adult, he married Ms. Hong Song.
