Curators of the exhibition and the whole art exchange program are two established Taiwanese artists, Mr. Din Ren-Tong and Mr. Albert Wu with Taiwan’s esteemed print-making master, Professor Bill Chung, as the honourary advisor.

    Apart from cultivating and developing cultural exchange and interactions between the local and foreign artists, it is also a great platform for up and coming artists to get greater exposure and recognitions of their artworks.

    20th April 2017, will be one of my memorable moment in my art journey because this is my first ever trip to Taiwan, the Republic of China (ROC).
    I am truly honoured and humbled to be invited as one of the participating artist in the 2017 Taiwan International Art Exchange Exhibition “Yunlin Art Together”.

    This exhibition has gained a success running for three consecutive years and 2017 is their 4th year. The event was curated by the very well known and revered Taiwanese printmaker, Dr. Chung You-Hui, a professor of the National Taiwan University of Arts, with the assistance of Mr. Ting Jen-Tong and Mr. Wu Chiung-Wei, both of whom are established and award winning artists in their country.

    This year, a total of 49 artists from 10 countries were invited. They are from Australia, China (HongKong and Macau), Iraq, Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, Spain, Thailand and Taiwan. Quite a diversity there.

    Blog post

    The much-anticipated journey continues in Langkawi Art Biennale 2016. The all-encompassing theme in this coming event is called the ‘Exploration’. Moving forward with the ‘Migration‘ theme from the 1st biennale, participating artists will settle down and experience Langkawi in-depth. Artists would be exposed to new discoveries of multifaceted cultures and religions, an endless array of local food, varying lifestyle of the inhabitants, and even the tranquil nature of the countryside and natural beaches.

    What an experience! To be part of this international art event was pretty surreal for me. This is the first time coloured pencil artwork were included and exhibited along with all other mainstream medium here in Malaysia.  It is a huge milestone for coloured pencil art in Malaysia and I hope it will open up a path and opportunities for more colour pencil artists locally and internationally.

    First of all, this event is not

  • My ‘Colour Pencil’ adventure to the United States of America – 23rd Annual Colored Pencil Society of America International Exhibition, Atlanta, GA)

    12 August 2015

    Blog post

    I really do not know how to describe my feelings when I walked into Double Tree Hillton Atlanta on the 29th July 2015, Wednesday where the 23rd Annual Colored Pencil Society of America (CPSA) convention was held.

    I remembered registering myself at the CPSA meet and greet counter where I received my goodies bag and also my name tag and the minute the person behind the counter realised that I came all the way from Malaysia, she and her friends, who are the CPSA Atlanta DC107 Chapter,  gave me such a very warm welcome, I was blushing by then.

    The set up in the Hospitality Suite, with so many ‘treasures’ was a sight to behold. Better than any art outlet I have ever been in Malaysia because it was all things colour pencil. I was like a kid in a candy store. There were so many freebies by sponsors and we were free to pick anything we

  • My ‘Colour Pencil” adventure to the United State of America- Road trip leading up to the 23rd Annual Colored Pencil Society of America International Exhibition, Atlanta, GA

    To travel 23 hours, going through 2 different time zones half way across the globe for a holiday with friends and family is quite a normal thing BUT to travel alone, meet and stay with people whom I only know through social media is an adventure!

    Some say it is a risk I am taking, considering that I am already a 45 years old woman, adventure time should be way over. Now, how did this came about? Well, I can proudly say that it is all because of colour pencil art. Strange but true, because I live to tell….

    The story begins with the Colored Pencil Society of America (CPSA) where I am a member of since 2014. I have participated in their 22nd Annual CPSA International 2014 and was very fortunate to have my art work selected for the exhibition in Florida. After seeing all the photos of
