In the dappled light

Creation speaks

A symphony of birdsong

Gentle breeze, rustles the leaves

Light dances on the water 

And peeks through the trees

A balm for the soul

"Surprised by Waterhens"

Waterhens are shy and elusive creatures. Their plain colours and their preference to hide in the underbrush makes them harder to spot. But if you are quiet and wait, your patience will be rewarded.

"The King"

To quote C.S. Lewis from The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe:

“Wrong will be right, when Aslan comes in sight,

At the sound of his roar, sorrows will be no more,

When he bares his teeth, winter meets its death,

And when he shakes his mane, we shall have spring again.”

"Chasing Pigeons"

When I watched my children chase pigeons at the bottom of a HDB block, fully entertained and engaged by this simple pleasure, it transported me back to my own childhood days.

Without phones and other electronic devices, I spent many hours on Sunday afternoons playing under my grandmother’s sewing table, using her bits of scrap cloth to create costumes for games of make believe.

This artwork is painted in acrylic paint and uses collage from fabric scraps left behind by my late grandmother. The colour choices are reminiscent of my old childhood photographs. The background is hazy with a suggestion of HDB flats to represent my childhood memories that are a bit fuzzy. But the joy and exuberance of the children is in full colour to show the parts of my memories that are still distinct. The safety of home, and the care-free enjoyment of simple things.
