29th August 2022 Dr Mathew George Hi, I am Mathew George. I love to create art via cross stitch. It is therapeutic, and here for this piece of Snake River, I took many months to complete. There are about ten types of cross-stitch designs. In this piece, I have used multiple types to simulate a…

29th August 2022 Ms AnnSu Hi, I am AnnSu. My love affair with watercolour began sometime in 2014😉. There is something very romantic about watercolour that I find fascinating.

But the silver lining during this period was that…

28th July 2022 Dr Beena Hello everyone, I hope everyone is safe wherever you are😊. Now I must share my excruciating challenge with Mona Lisa. It is the most recognised portrait in the world. To be tasked with this painting was painstakingly anxiety for me😒. So, I began my journey with acrylic paint. Even after…

17th July 2022 Dr Beena Hello there! Today I wish to post a watercolour painting by Mrs Lavender Jong. She has depicted this young girl in a field that is full of sunshine. In this painting, she has used two techniques. She used a loose method for the background and a tight method for the…

6th July 2022 Mrs Annie Teo   Some time ago, Dr Beena shared her personal experience of being introduced to Cubism and Picasso (Finding Beenasso – 6th May 2022). I attend art classes at the same school as Dr.Beena. I had to paint my self-portrait in Cubism style, and I must confess that the memory…
