Painted a painting that I like! I dreamt about it last nights and I can't wait to complete the image today. It is a painting of a cityscape! Some recall the painting a resemblance of Mr Lim TP's or Mr Chua EK's works. To me, a painting is just a painting! It is a works of my heart.
In this particular work, I was thinking how could the traditional Chinese landscape painting theories and idealogies be transferred to a newer context? As I laid my brush strokes onto the paper, I handle every building like mountains, the roads are the rivers. With all these combine together, the composition is more of the Mr Li Keran, the stroke is similiar to traditional Chinese "Chun Fa". I think I do have a style of my own.
