Plein Air Jalan Kayu


Plein air oil painting of "Church of The Epiphany" in Jalan Kayu along Tampines Expressway. Many construction works are going on nearby, quite unsure of this very old architecture.





Sketched this nostalgic back alley in Jalan Kayu with spiral staircase, plants growing on them, air vents in houses.....on the left is a tree thriving on a large stone wall. It started raining while sketching, added colors at home later.

Jalan Kayu Painting

Did this one today at Jalan Kayu, an old two storey house tucked in between other newly renovated houses, with interesting antique lamps, cracks on the walls and fresh colorful blossoms in balcony, I see this as a tie between past and present.


Monochrome, 9" X 12", Oil on canvas


The second is a watercolor sketch of an old building with unique shaped balconies, interesting sun-shade windows, some plants growing on the cracks and this building stands in the heart of Jalan  Kayu with busy shops nearby.
