Exhibits at Public Library

"Wall of Art", Sengkang Public Library, Singapore

My paintings are on display in the "Wall Of Art" at Sengkang public library, attracting many visitors! The gallery will be on display till end of  February. Some of the paintings are already sold, encouraging me to work more.



I have added some more paintings to the gallery. The painting medium used for all the paintings is acrylic paint, the advantage about acrylic paints is that they dry very fast than oil paints. Some think of this fast drying capacity as a disadvantage because blending is not as easy as oil medium. But blending can also be possible in acrylic medium when done faster or for blending colors in large areas a spray of water can maximise the drying time.

The main advantage of acrylic medium is glazing technique. This is possible quickly after paint is applied over an area because the underpaint is dry in minutes, no need to wait for days.
