Jln Hang Tuah

Oil, 61 x 76 cm

The first painting from my China Town Series and many more to come, completed on my 40th birthday. Me beaming beside my painting.

It is also today my teacher Apollo was diagnosed with Glaucoma, a sight threatening eye disease in which the internal pressure in his right eye bulds up. If the treatment is not successful, the pressure will increase enough to damage the nerve fibers in his optic nerve and cause vision loss. He tried to sound optimistic as it is only the 2nd second stage. I really wish he will recover soon as he is treated by KL famous eye specialist Dr.Pratam Singh. Here is my teacher showing off his acquisition.
