Flying Fisherman

Flying Fisherman, 12" X 16", Acrylic on canvas
SOLD

The Serangoon river running along the Sengkang East is a habitat for a variety of birds. Herons and kingfishers are common to see along the riverbanks, hence the area is known to be one of the best bird-watching spots in Singapore. This is the close view of riverbank of Sungei Serangoon (Serangoon river) from the jogging track.

A Serene Heritage Trail 2

A Serene Heritage Trail 2, 16" X 20", Acrylic on canvas
SOLD

This view of Bukit Timah Railway Station is from a rugged sand path behind the station. Situated in a serene atmosphere, the Bukit Timah Railway Station is an endearing local landmark and a key building of Singapore’s railway history. The Bukit Timah Railway Station was opened as a part of the Singapore-Kranji Railway. Owned by the Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad (KTMB), these railway tracks and train stations were properties of the Malaysian Government until June 30, 2011. Going there after the train service ceased, everyone including me had a nostalgic feel about the place. This must be the reason why I wanted to paint this place. Its conservation serves as a physical reminder of Singapore’s role as a transport hub in the region.

Forest Light

Forest Light, 12" X 16", Acrylic on canvas

The painting "Forest Light" is done for a client, Ms. Pearl. She asked for a fresh greenish color for the entire painting and sent me a reference. I'm happy to do a customised painting like this one and she is very happy too!

Sunset River


Sunset River, 16" X 20", Acrylic on canvas
                                                 SOLD

This view of sunset is from Sengkang west riverside park, nearby the Tampines expressway. When the sky is clear, one can see the beautiful reflections and splendid colors in water during the sunset. The riverside park attracts many nearby residents for leisure walk and has become a weekend picnic spot for many families.



Buangkok Kampong 3

Kampong Buangkok 3, 16" X 20", Acrylic on canvas
SOLD

This is another painting showing a typical scene of kampong in Buangkok. This is the last surviving kampong in mainland Singapore, situated besides the Sungei Punggol. The kampong houses are a surprise amidst the urban high rise buidings. Wooden houses with metal roofs, rain puddles in the paths, overhead power lines, fences and many others are some rare sights which can only be seen in the kampong.
