Fu Daokun (fl. 1626), was a Chinese painter. She was famed foremost for her skill as a copyist. She was, together with Fan Daokun, one of only two female artists to be recognized by her contemporaries as elite artists.

She was married to the scholar Fan Taixue in Shaoxing and acquainted with the art critic Fan Yunlin, who referred to her as an excellent landscape painter. She was famous in contemporary China, but she only ever accepted to paint for her relatives.
